      Facing pressure to address the economic fallout of his #war in #Iran, #Trump on Monday sought to portray his supposed policy “wins” for small businesses as evidence that he was succeeding in building up the #economy.

      Speaking to #business leaders from across the country at an event in the East Room of the White House, Trump declared that slashing #taxes & #regulations had yielded “record business,” & that the economy was “roaring.”

          The White House described the Small #Business Week event as highlighting “the extraordinary revival of Main Street under his America First agenda.”

          But looming over it all was a #war abroad that #Trump began, & whose economic impact is compounding #CostOfLiving concerns among Americans, many of whom say their economic reality has worsened under his tenure.

          Trump’s comments Monday created a sharp contrast with economic #reality, as rising #energy #prices hammer families & businesses alike.

            @Nonilex Does anyone else think that #Trump lives in a kind of cloud cuckoo land because his toadies are terrified of telling the Orange Ogre his policies suck? /s

              Deja vu of his quotes in 2020 about COVID-19.

                The public corruption is all the GOP does, all day, every day

                https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-05-05/senate-gop-seeks-1-billion-for-secret-service-trump-ballroom

                Koch Network paid $550 million to Trump for lies about Iran
                https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-oil-industry-donations

                Trump wanted a billion to wreck the planet & got it from Qatar, Atlas & Koch Networks, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Putin.

                  @alex_p_roe @Nonilex The thing is economy is "roaring" for him; and his family; and friends. That is the optics.

                    @Nonilex it has to stop soon
                    And I don't mean with these fake shooters and TRUMPED up attacks. His own will turn on him and remove him. We'll be left with his and their wreckage
