SOME OF YOU NEED TO HEAR THIS: President Trump is the President. He is not your personal financial manager. It's not President Trump's fault that you: • Bought a $70K truck on an 84-month loan you couldn't afford. • Carry $15K in credit-card debt buying wants instead of needs. • DoorDash dinner while complaining groceries are expensive. • Upgrade your $1,200 phone every two years. • Pay for 7 subscriptions you barely use. • Took a mortgage at the absolute limit the bank would approve. • Spend thousands every year on alcohol, vaping, gambling or other habits. • Take vacations on credit and pay for them for the next 18 months. • Never built an emergency fund when times were good. • Increased your lifestyle every time your income increased instead of building assets. Yes, housing is expensive. Groceries are expensive. Insurance is expensive. Healthcare is expensive. Government policy matters. But PERSONAL DECISIONS matter too. No President can sign an Executive Order fixing 20 years of your financial habits. Sometimes Washington needs accountability. Sometimes the person in the mirror does too.
