Who TF in the Whitehouse was moronic enough to believe that this was a credible source for Affordability?

I thought this was satire until I visited the WH "News" page which appears like something written by the Babylon Bee.

John Roberts and this Supreme Court better realize that they have to rein in the rogue president.
HE’S OUT OF CONTROL!
Unreviewable powers??!
So when the next step comes - shooting civilians - they’ll say he can’t be held accountable?
They’ve given him too much power and he’s taking full advantage.
🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump has broad unreviewable powers to flood U.S. cities with National Guard troops, the Department of Justice (DOJ) argued in an expansive new filing to the Supreme Court. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

It’s insane to me that people are still shocked that a career fraudster convicted felon’s main goal was to rob the US blind out of revenge as well as greed whilst sitting in the White House that he laced with tacky gold-plating and bulldozed for his ballroom. I hate him.

Trump promised to lower prices "on day one" - but under his administration it's only gotten harder for people to afford basics like groceries. He's done nothing to make life affordable for working people, & his economic policies are making it worse. www.baltimoresun.com/2025/11/07/s...

This is a serious violation—not only of self-expression but the safety of trans Americans, who could be jailed in many countries for being who they are. In case after case, SCOTUS has enabled this admin’s cruel, extreme agenda on the most vulnerable without justification.

We’re all talking about affordability, Mr. President, because you promised to lower costs. You broke that promise, and working families are struggling to make ends meet. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump: "I don't want to hear about the affordability, because right now we're much less. If you look at energy, we're getting close to $2 a gallon gasoline."

Then those lying wretches try to blame Democrats!
They DO NOT want to reopen the government!
They DO NOT want to feed poor children!
They DO NOT want US to afford healthcare!
They WANT Americans to suffer. It’s all a part of Trump’s RETRIBUTION campaign.
Also distracts US from the Epstein Files.
Democrats offered a deal to fund the government & extend ACA tax credits for a year to bring costs down on coverage. Republicans refused. Their unwillingness to protect healthcare & reopen the government is hurting working families. #TrumpShutdownDragsOn www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/11/...
Senate Republicans reject Democrat deal to reopen government
The U.S. government shutdown has dragged on for 38 days because of a dispute over whether ACA tax credits should be included in a stop-gap funding bill.
