Americans want affordable housing. Congress passed a bipartisan bill. Trump refused to sign it. 🖊️ 🏡 76% of Americans say affordability and the cost of living are their top concerns. Yet this week, President Trump delayed signing a bipartisan housing bill passed overwhelmingly by Congress, saying he wanted lawmakers to first pass the SAVE Act, an unrelated election bill that is unpopular amongst Americans. 🏛️ Just days earlier, the administration asked Congress to approve billions of dollars to pay for Trump’s war with Iran. The conflict also renewed concerns about higher oil and energy costs, adding to broader affordability worries for American families. 📈 During the 2024 campaign, Trump repeatedly promised to bring prices down and said inflation would end “starting on Day One.” More than a year into his presidency, annual inflation has risen from 2.7% in November 2024 to 4.2% as of May 2026. 💰 Housing, groceries, insurance, gas, and other essentials remain expensive, and many Americans say they still don’t feel relief. 📢 Meanwhile, ethics questions continue to surround the president. Lawmakers have called for investigations into stock trades around major policy announcements, as well as conflict-of-interest concerns surrounding the White House UFC event. Financial disclosures have also drawn scrutiny to revenue from Trump’s private businesses—including licensing, merchandise, and other ventures—while he serves as president. It seems Trump is more interested in lining his own pockets instead of helping everyday Americans… who would’ve thought? 🤔 #news #politics #economy #viral #fyp - @thepublictakehq
