 Pressley on Trump promise to lower costs: ‘How’s that going?’
by Lauren Irwin - 02/11/25 8:34 AM ET

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) slammed President Trump over his promise to lower everyday costs for Americans, asking “How’s that going?”

“Donald Trump ran on a promise to bring down costs for everyday people, but didn’t have a plan for it, but said he would,” Pressley said Monday at a rally. “Well, Donald, how’s that going?”

“I’ll ask you all,” she continued, addressing the public. “How’s it going? Are your eggs cheaper? Is your housing more affordable?”

The crowd, gathered to protest the Trump administration’s efforts to shutter the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), shouted back, “No!”

The demonstration Monday was organized by CFPB workers outside their headquarters in Washington. They are protesting tech billionaire Elon Musk, and the Department of Government Efficiency‘s (DOGE) aim to slash federal spending.

Take your Bald Headed self outside of Washington for a rally and see how well it goes when you are not surrounded by DC Gov employees cheering you on.

These people are idiots.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
