Let’s check in on a Trump campaign promise.
Energy Year-Over-Year Fact Check
- CPI Energy Jan 2025 1.0%, Now 20.4%
- CPI Utilities and Fuel Jan 2025 2.9%, Now 5.8%
- CPI Gasoline Jan 2025 -0.2%, Now 34.2%
- CPI Diesel Jan 2025 -9.3%, Now 69.7%
We cannot calculate how much Trump was wrong on diesel because to go from -9.3 percent to +69.7 percent while promising lower is undefined.
Promises Fact Check
- Clip 1: With the Trump economic plan, we will will cut your energy prices in half within – lock it down – you can get get very angry at me if we don’t do it – but within 12 months your energy prices will be cut in half.
- Clip 2: My plan will cut energy prices in half or more than that within 12 months of taking office.
- Clip 3: Number one, your energy bill within 12 months will be cut in half. That’s my pledge all over the country. To farmers, that’s my pledge all over the country.
- Clip 4: If you vote for me, I will cut your energy and electricity in half within 12 months. We’re gonna cut them down.
- Clip 5: And under my plan we will cut energy and electricity in half within 12 months. And that means your homes too.
- Clip 6: I will cut your energy and electricity prices in half. 50 percent. Five O, within 12 months of taking office.
- Clip 7. My plan will cut energy prices in half within 12 months. We’re gonna have energy prices for businesses, but in my opinion maybe even more importantly for the average household by 12 months from January 20th which is the day we go into office.
- Clip 8: I will cut the price of energy and electricity in half. Ready? 12 months from January 20, your electric bill, including cars, air conditioners, heating, everything. Your total electric bill will be fifty, five o, fifty percent less. We’re gonna cut it in half.
- Clip 9: And I will cut energy and electricity prices in half within 12 months of taking office. Fifty percent.
- Clip 10: The pledge that I am making now, and we’ve done this a little bit over the last month or so, we are going to bring energy down by 50 percent, five o percent, fifty percent within 12 months from January 20.
Fact Check Promises vs Results
- Trump promised numerous times to cut energy bills in half.
- Instead, the cost of energy rose from 1% year-over-year to 20.4% year-over year.
But that’s OK because it’s small price to pay and Trump knew it would happen.
We Were Very Aware
Well it’s just a little bit, so who’s counting?
Besides, didn’t Trump warn us all along that war was a possibility?
Let’s fact check that too.
I Am Not Going to Start a War
Trump: “I’m not going to start a war, I’m going to stop wars…Under Trump we will have no more wars, no more disruptions, and we will have prosperity and peace for all…I am the candidate of peace, I am peace.”
Obvious Points
Obviously, Trump didn’t say what he said.
Q: How so?
A: Trump is always right. And since he is always right, he never said what he said.
If this sounds confusing, please remember Trump is always right.
He’s a genius too.
I hope that clarifies matters.

Well he is more demented, sleepy and bigger diapers than Biden at this point.
We will find out how America feels about Trump in the midterms. He keeps saying to act like he is on the ballot.
So be it.

he couldn’t lie straight in bed.
Good thing he didn’t say he would “cut energy costs” any more!
Kind of like starting a war with Iran so we could pay them “$300 Billion Reconstruction and Development Fund”.
Not to mention roughly a Trillion $ in costly military epenses.
Good thing we didn’t lose!!
(As per my bumper sticker too!)
No worries, Iran is still “begging for a deal”!
Tip: If Trump uses the word “Begging” in any sentence assume the OPPOSITE is true! Like when he pissed off the Italian PM lying claiming she was “begging to meet him”. Utter BS.
He’s developed a toolbox of BS catch words and phrases over the years to fool people. Sadly, but importantly. we have to learn his tricks.

I wonder if the starlink slow down and trumps threat to cut intel is not about diesel prices but about ukraine hitting the data centers in russia.
If you think about it trump loses russian bots right before the election and musk loses the income they generate on x
Traffic and likes for Musks posts are way down, and it hurt his fee fees. I understand why he’s so into AI now… it’s the only thing on the planet he can make like him.
A trillion dollars would make most people go crazy. Some more than others.
Even the New York Times has stated that the whole campaign is a CIA operation. Ukraine cannot fly around Russian Air Defense without real-time satellite ISR, finding seams in radar coverage, flying at elevations and speeds to slip by Russian monitoring.
The whole idea that Ukraine decides anything means they have succeeded in pulling the wool over your eyes: Proxy war means it is the US at war, Ukraine is just the hands. All the political theater is to pretend it isn’t the US, and to burden-share the war onto European leaders who are NATO servants. Europeans have to jump into the meat-grinder after the last Ukrainian.
Same as when they talk about Israel “going it alone”. Yeah, without satellite signals, flying through US defended air space, no refueling.
There is one thing that Donald J. Trump excells at compared to all the malignant narcissists that I have seen personally, or have become aware of from a distance, and that is “gaslighting”. He is “absolutely” the ultimate gaslighter of “humongous” proportions that I have ever seen. And yes, I have a background in the “Behavioral Sciences”, and actually studied under a very astute psychiatrist, not as a patient, but as a student. And I totally agree with Dr. John Gartner, that the president is extremely narcissistic and extremely demented. You see, the president actually believes his nonsense because in his current state of dementia, he doesn’t realize how nonsensical it really is. And the most frightening part of this is: the very position in the U.S. government he now occupies.
My brother was married to a malignant narcissist for almost 19 years and still has minor kids with it. The president is def a narcissist.
What are the best examples of his gaslighting?
Tariff refunds(Corps did get theirs) Doge refund, 5K if R’s win Congress. No wars. etc!!
Telling us we are getting $5000 checks if the Republicans hold Congress. He has zero authority to do that.
Right out of the gate, inaugural crowd size. During the campaign, a below the belt size.
He publicly denounces anyone who disagrees with him.
He is likely the biggest gaslighter because he has the loudest amplifier in the office of the president.
my weekly call from Iran was short because once again my country is forcing these people to flee their homes.

When you’re trying to cut energy prices, obviously what you want to do is attack the Persians. What could they possibly do about it?
They’re the rug people, right? Pffft… we have all the rugs we need.
Well yes all politicians lie, even to their base. Trump is no different on that. All Republicans and Democrats do it.
Trump was different though in one big way. In his first campaign, he promised to appoint Supreme Court justices who were anti-abortion, and he did so, appointing Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett, all of whom subsequently voted in 2022 to overturn Roe v. Wade. This was perhaps the biggest single issue to MAGA, and Trump did what he promised. (I am not commenting on abortion itself, I merely wish to point out that to MAGA, on the most important issue they had, Trump upheld his promise).
That issue is now done and the halo is gone. MAGA now seems to be looking at other issues such as their personal finances or foreign wars and may decide to hold Trump accountable for his false promises on those topics. So the days of Trump being Mr. Teflon look to be over.
You think this obvi corrupt Supreme Court is a feather in his cap?
And you don’t grok MAGA if you think it was a pro life movement at its core. Grab em by the pussy after all
That’s not what I said. I am stating no opinion at all on whether I think his Supreme Court appointments were good or not. But the abortion issue was absolutely critical to the evangelical and social conservative components of MAGA, and Trump delivered on his promises to them. You can’t dispute that.
Are the majority of Americans for abortion? Shouldn’t the majority rule on this point since this a democracy?
The law should be what the majority of Americans want. A vote should be taken, perhaps state by state.
A bunch of old geisers shouldn’t make the rules on this one.
I disagree…..immigration was the biggest issue to them.
You are correct, for a large portion of MAGA (not the evangelicals nor the social conservatives, but the blue collar component), immigration was the biggest issue, particularly following what happened during the Biden administration. In the 2024 campaign, Trump promised to do several things including mass deportations, completing the border wall, and putting an end to birthright citizenship. Putting aside whether we think these are good or bad promises, there is the question of: Did Trump deliver on the promises he made to MAGA? On mass deportations, the answer is yes, deportations drastically increased, and immmigration drastically decreased. On completing the wall, the answer is a partial yes, not so much as a physical wall but more as a “smart” electronic system. On birthright citizenship, the answer is no, but this was a ridiculous promise to do something clearly unconstitutional. But he can still go back to his MAGA base and claim he tried.
In a way, you are strengthening the case that Trump has carried through on some of the promises he made to the MAGA crowd that were most important to them.
If it was just that simple Immigration enforcement is rare at Nebraska’s ag worksites. Why?
https://flatwaterfreepress.org/immigration-enforcement-is-rare-at-nebraskas-ag-worksites-why/
The deportations appear to be way behind schedule, and currently conservative Republican businessmen are pressuring the White House to stop deporting entire swaths of workers. (They also pressured Reagan to give it up.)
I don’t think the Trump methodology on dealing with immigration was what most Americans wanted. Killing people, imprisoning them, sending them off to random countries, is not the way to treat people. Anyone who reads the bible or is a half way decent person knows that.
It would be nice if you dated the Economics headlines.

WAR to eliminate a terrorist country has a COST—fuel rather than killing American service members is cheap
The Vietnam war cost at least 58,000 US servicemen.
You want us to eliminate Israel?
Yes we spend billions of dollars protecting our airlines from Jews —Stupid
So we… Allied with the Jews and attacked a random nation to stop them from shooting our airlines down? Boy you’re a clever one, I can see how you struggle to spell your own name.
Bot boy—Not a random nation but a political terrorist nation that wants to dominate the world like the Natzies–stupid
“Our” airlines have only been attacked by Arabs. Iranians are Persians.
Sorry if so much geography overwhelms you. Not really.
Not to mention that the US and Israel have – at times – sponsored various Sunni terrorist groups. “Al Qaeda is on our side” – Jake Sullivan.
Democrat jake boy
Where do I sign up?
well this is a war that won’t lead to that outcome so it is a pretty moot point.
When the general population gets weapons the Mullahs are history
The political death cult will end and Iran can go back to the wonderful life of the 70s will return
Let me guess? 9/11? Nope, Sunni fanatics, sponsored and funded by Saudi Arabia and the Gulfie tyrannies.
Al Qaeda? Nope, Sunni fanatics, sponsored and funded by Saudi Arabia and the Gulfie tyrannies.
ISIS? Nope, Sunni fanatics, sponsored and funded by Saudi Arabia and the Gulfie tyrannies.
But go on, tell how bad Iran is.
Wait! What? They’re not all the same?
Iranian’s Islamist cult have killed their own people stupid to stay in power

thanks for your take. funny stories. i do remember riding the .COM stocks up…….and using trailing stop losses sold near enought to the top to make me feel like a champ by the time 2002 rolled around. 9.11.01 helped out by injecting free money and major league spending…………of course many of my childhood pals perished in twin towers. many got out.

The manager of our engineering team at a major microprocessor company was asked to come along as an engineering liaison to a meeting with some folks who wanted to sell us their IP for a chip. He came back telling us that his simple questions about whether they had simulated it, modeled it or taped it out for fabrication shot the whole deal down. All they had was the untested source code for the chip and were asking dozens of millions for it. That’s what was then called vaporware. Examples like these then were legion.
Don’t think so. We need to see lots of folks bidding up stocks on obviously idiotic ideas.
Not yet lol

If bad policy as obvious as this passes uncorrected, our master steering mechanism is broken.
Trump doing this ruinous, ill-planned war without any form of public consent alone is far more than his usual trolling and questionable policymaking. It should be enough to bring a wholesale public rebuke.
Yes, we’ve done stupid stuff before. But November is a litmus test for the USA, its governance system, and its future. If the stupidity quotient is that bad, we’re turning a corner.
Just call him King Trump and it all makes more sense.

Either it gets fixed here or the US falls apart as the economic reasons for all fifty states to be a union evaporates. Are places like Alabama and Louisiana really worth their weight in the welfare everyone else pays them?
The “lesser evil” strategy doesn’t prevent the evil tyrant. It produces him. Every time you swallow the lesser evil to block the worse one, you’re buying time—but you’re also letting the underlying conditions fester. And those conditions are what eventually generate the actual catastrophe.
Every D/R presidential choice in my >60 year life has been greater vs lesser evil. The reality of our uniparty system started to become clear to me during Clinton and I’ve been quixotically “throwing my vote away” on NON-D/R presidential candidates ever since.
We are a small contingent, but in the battleground state where I’m from, us 3rd-party voters were greater than the difference between the two major parties in 2024.
So… vote for the greater evil?
False dichotomy. You don’t have to choose between Coke and Pepsi.
So let the others choose for you.
It’s more like loudly and proudly proclaiming you want water instead of soda before being forced to drink Pepsi because you wouldn’t make a call. Feral doesn’t have to choose because other people will make his drink for him and he’ll drink it regardless of whether he likes it or not. But hey, feels good to say you don’t consent!
Feral will go out and have a beer, because he is not constrained the way the ‘lesser evil’ people are. The ones who can’t even conceive of a choice other than Coke or Pepsi, even though there are others named right there on the ballot.
Cats don’t drink beer, It smells like urine to us.
We prefer water or black espresso.
If you want to justify being a herd animal, go right ahead.
it is Coke and Sprite, it’s a better fit.
2 completely different softdrinks whose purpose is to put money in the same group of people’s pockets.
How about water or fresh fruit juice?
you can ask for water or fresh juice, but you are only going to get Coke or Sprite.
welcome to the American electoral system.
You don’t have to drink Sprite, either.
I’ve been asking for water for decades, but all I ever get served is Coke or Sprite.
and the time I actually voted for Sprite, what we all got was a watered down Coke.
Lucky you… I just get pissed on.
Marty couldn’t get Pepsi Free in 1955.

No more representatives… direct vote from our phones, ties resolved by mortal combat.
If these midterms would be only about facts and lies, the Republicans could only hold on to Alabama and West Virginia. But the proposition that will really be tested in these midterms is whether Elon Musk can single-handedly buy an election for a “dirtbag” (using MAGA language) like Ken Paxton.
ask Massie.
voting matters, but money well spent appears to matter more.
I really miss the MAGA contingent that used to comment here.
Would love to hear a MAGA response to this excellent post from Mish. How do you folks continue to convince yourselves that Trump is a genius who is making America better?! Would love to understand the rationale.
That happened when W Bush’s whole gig fell apart. All the loudmouths hefting US flags from their trucks vanished. No admissions of error, no apologies. They were too busy being repo’d and foreclosed, I guess.
I’ll want to check Faux News comments to see what is still being offered up.
The primary argument has been to change the subject. But the borders. But the trannies. Maybe suddenly folks have to think about feeding their kids or paying mom’s new medical bill hikes (E.g., Medicare Advantage disappearing from 2025 cuts).
Fox has a major trannie fetish.
A blonde trannies fetish.
Poppy and Dumbya had 90% approval ratings when they started the beat of the war drums.
The Russians should have those data centers back up in a few months.
I can find thousands of Kool Aid chugging Trump cultists right outside my door.
Moreover, nobody cares what the people who post here think.
What happened to our regulars then? Only one I’ve seen since the data centers were bombed is Arthur.
it is pretty coinky-dinky lol
Are the Russians in the room with you right now?
Apparently not.
What about them? People come and go.
Stu and Jojo always seemed just a bit too happy clappy to be real. I’m sure there are people that enthused with Trumpstien, but I seriously doubt they could compose a readable sentence.
I kind of wish Arthur weren’t real.
I have personally encountered humans who insist, on the basis of no discernable evidence, that Donald Trump and Jesus Christ are in regular, direct two-way communication, and that they discuss personnel and policy.
I have heard of humans who insist that Donald Trump is in fact the Second Coming, but I have never encountered any such humans in the wild.
If Trump has any religion at all, I think he’s a convert to Judaism. It would explain a lot. I’ve heard that some (a tiny few) Jews consider Trump to possibly be the Messiah ben Joseph. Most American Jews just consider him an asshole.
My suspicion is that they are Elon’s Grok bots.
And then be destroyed yet again. Or will Russia put air defense at every data center? Not that it makes much of a difference when it’s never 100% effective.
In his own way, Trump is a genius. He has several impediments to that genius.
He is unable to express himself well; he is a lousy speaker! As I my self am 87, it is clear that his AGE is a factor in his stumbling: He shouldn’t have been so quick to pick on sleepy Joe Biden! In his previous administration he had people with more experience, but they didn’t fully agree with him. This administration is filled with inexperienced brown nosers ready to carry out any cockamamie idea Trump suggests. The plan to exterminate TERROR from Iran is worthy. It was executed with amateurish thinking. Were any of the NEGATIVE consequences of the operation considered? Intelligence concerning Iran had to be faulty. Was the inept CIA in on the plan. Knowing the CIA, that could have been the failure! The CIA likely issued false information in order to f–k -p the campaign?
The CIA is full of insane Zionists. Getting the U.S. in another stupid Mideast war wasn’t a bug, it was a feature.
Thanks for engaging.
What genius qualities do you believe Trump possesses?
Isn’t the reason that Trump’s “administration is filled with inexperienced brown nosers ready to carry out any cockamamie idea Trump suggests” precisely that Trump hired people because they were like that? No self-respecting expert in any field would agree to be a sock-puppet for their boss, so the only people he could get were inexperienced, i.e., they lacked the requisite experience and knowledge to perform the job. Similarly, he demanded absolute loyalty, which means he wanted brown-nosers who would never question his orders or ever tell him no. Isn’t that obvious? Do you really think that someone who is a genius would not understand this?
What am I missing? Please tell me, it is not a rhetorical question.
trump is the greatest actor of our generation. charlie chaplin claimed that adolph hitler was the greatest actor of his generation. he even made a movie mocking hitler. and hitler loved it. watched it twice. trump had a hit reality tv show for a very long time. and convinced hundred million plus amerikans he was the greatest businessman of all time. he needs an academy award. lifetime achievement. forget the nobel.
The Iran War Price Shock Is Here, and It Runs Into 2027
https://www.loriannlarocco.com/p/the-iran-war-price-shock-is-here
Only Ed Koch could ask “Howmidoin?” correctly.
Good critic joke
But, but at least he’s not Kamala! He’s a WHITE MAN! And Kamala had a wierd laugh! And her campaign was pure socialism: Tax cuts for middle class people, expanding child care benefits for families, and expanding green energy jobs. No thanks Komrade Kamala! /s
Without spending cuts, tax “cuts” are /not/. They instead shift taxation from transparent accounting to murky taxation via currency devaluation, in turn affecting people in less obvious ways.
A week after trump passed his tax cuts (primarily for the wealthy — yes, worse), ZH ran a headline saying the USD devalued that week enough to entirely offset the benefit Trump claimed for the middle class.
Little bit of sane-washing going on here. She also promised to provide transgender surgery at state cost to imprisoned illegals.
She also couldn’t name a single thing she’d do differently than Biden.
Not a great candidate at the time people were desperate for change.
I didn’t hear her say anything about getting rid of Blinken and Sullivan – two maleficent schemers.
”She also couldn’t name a single thing she’d do differently than Biden.”
This was the key problem with her IMO. It tells you that she has no willingness to say no, to question her boss. She is essentially telling America that she thinks Joe Biden’s decision making was perfect.
How could any thinking person vote for someone like that? This is not a rhetorical question.
Because, as we are experiencing, the alternative was far, far worse.
Winning?
If Hitler was found yesterday, his body and mind frozen in 1945, and fully resuscitated tomorrow, and the unfrozen Adolph Hitler were to run for office against Trump (one being the Democrat nominee and one the Republican), would you vote for Adolph or would you vote for Donald? Or would you vote for a candidate who is NOT evil but belongs to a [gasp] third party?!
That is the question!
Well, obviously I would have to compare them on their merits. At this point turning Hitler loose on Israel might land in my pro column.
YOU ARE DEAD ON CORRECT. she lost the day she said couldnt’ name a different thing from biden. also Biden lost on the genocide and famine warmongering……..plus his idiotic debate and turning baton over. if they had opened the convention to voting for a 2024 candidate perhaps Mamala might have won that and the general. maybe.
She lost the day she was issued a vagina. America won’t be ready for that for another 50 years.
trump is the greatest actor of our generation. charlie chaplin claimed that adolph hitler was the greatest actor of his generation. he even made a movie mocking hitler. and hitler loved it. watched it twice. trump had a hit reality tv show for a very long time. and convinced hundred million plus amerikans he was the greatest businessman of all time. he needs an academy award. lifetime achievement. forget the nobel. HE ALSO DELIVERED THE Supreme Court TO OVER TURN ROE V WADE. Which was an issue for 50 years. Promises made. Promises kept. /sarc but also true
then it was dumb of the democrats to appoint her as their candidate.
Yes, it was… even dumber than Hillary.
Don’t forget that in Nov 2024
So don’t conclude too lightly that with Kamala, Blinken, and Sullivan things could not have been any worse.
“How is Trump doing in his efforts to reduce gas prices?” According to my local gas stations…NOT GOOD!
Stop ordering the expensive gas station sushi, you pre-madonna!
Then you can afford more fuel!
But budget for “gas station heroin” to mute the stress response.
What about the rolling hot dogs?!
He needs to stop hiring truck stop lot lizards and become one himself. He could buy gas for hours if he’d just turn a few tricks with some burly truckers.
Everyone knew he was an ignorant Charlatan, but a bunch of morons voted for him anyway for whatever reason they rationalized to themselves
expecting rational policy from a democracy is crazy, since humans struggle with objectivity
same as it ever was. Hopefully better in future but no guarantees so plan accordingly!
I liked the D candidate even less.
Do you make a lot of mistakes?
