WAYNE ROOT: Affordability Crisis is #1 Issue According to Media. They’re Right- Things are Expensive. You Know Who’s to Blame? Democrats and Their Favorite Voters- 50 Million Illegal Aliens.

The mainstream media has convinced consumers that we have an “affordability crisis”- and that President Trump and the GOP are to blame.
This is the best example of gaslighting and brainwashing since Jim Jones convinced 918 brain-dead, brainwashed cult followers to commit mass suicide in Jonestown in 1978.
The American people can’t possibly be this gullible, naïve and delusional to drink the poison Kool-Aid..
Not because there isn’t an affordability crisis. There is inflation. Prices are high. Things are unaffordable. No doubt about that.
I go to the grocery store and the gas station too. I get health insurance, car insurance and home insurance bills too. I see the prices. They are high. Some might say astronomical.
More importantly, I get letters from thousands of my fans. Working class and middle class Americans are hurting. They all report, “The prices are too damn high.”
But the first raw truth no one will explain to American consumers is that prices rarely if ever in history have gone back to where they started. President Joe Biden caused this affordability crisis. Prices went through the roof under Biden.
That’s now the base. A great economic President like President Trump can keep them from skyrocketing any further, but he can’t wave a magic wand and bring them back to where they were. There is no such thing in history. The base has now been set.
Thank Joe Biden (and his real boss- Obama).
The inflation under Biden was the worst in modern history…the worst in my lifetime…and maybe the worst ever.
This is “Biden’s inflation.”
President Trump and the GOP should call it by that brand name 24/7 between now and midterms.
Trump- despite the Iran conflict and those infamous tariffs- has the rate of inflation under control. No one in the media will tell you that.
If an apple cost $1 during Trump’s first term, then it went to $4 under Joe Biden, now its $4.30 cents. That has consumers screaming and in shock. But it was never going to go back to $1. The best Trump could do was keep it from skyrocketing again. He did that. It only went up from $4 to $4.30. If we had Biden, or Kamala as president that $4.30 apple might now be $7 or $8.
But I get it. If the apple was unaffordable at $4, it’s even worse at $4.30. Especially if you have four kids and a family of six. The cost is too damn high. But you can’t blame Trump. This is all Biden.
Or take the cost of gas. Yes, it’s high. No doubt about that. It averages about $4 per gallon across the USA. The Iran war is to blame. But it reached a high of $5 per gallon under Biden- and there was no war. What was Biden’s excuse?
Under Trump its only high temporarily, until the Iran conflict ends. Then with all the drilling and fracking Trump has produced, prices will go dramatically down for years to come. Big difference.
Now to the main driver of inflation, high prices and affordability: 50+ million illegal aliens.
There are 50 million criminals inside our country, 50 million foreign invaders who illegally broke into our country. At least 50 million- some experts say there are millions more than that, maybe up to 100 million. And 25 million of these criminals who have no right to be in our country, just broke into our country during Joe Biden’s four years.
25 million new mouths to feed in only four years.
That’s where this affordability problem comes from. That’s where inflation comes from. That’s what’s causing most of these high prices.
25 million NEW mouths to feed, and 50+ million overall extra foreign invaders who don’t belong in our country – all eating up your tax money, bankrupting our budget, exploding the debt, and competing with you for every product- from gas to groceries, to clothes, to cars, to mortgages, to apartment rentals, to health insurance and car insurance.
Has anyone in power…in government…in the media every told you this before?
Take away 50 million mouths to feed…50 million extra bodies on our soil…or maybe 100 million…deport them all, or force them to self-deport…and everything goes down.
EVERYTHING.
Government spending, deficit and debt go down.
The cost of health insurance, healthcare, hospital bills, Medicare and Medicaid all go down.
The cost of public schools goes down.
We will need less cops, courts, prisons, schools, hospitals.
The cost of gas goes down with less demand. The cost of electricity goes down.
The cost of buying a car goes down. The cost of buying a home goes down.
Less spending and debt means less money printing by government. Interest rates go down.
Your cost of a mortgage goes down. Rents go down with 50+ million less renters looking for a home or apartment. Pretty soon landlords will drop rent by 25% and offer you six months free to move in.
Your taxes go down. Your property taxes go down.
Grocery costs go down. The cost of meat goes down. Milk, eggs, butter- all lower prices. The cost of diapers and baby formula drops by 50%- because it’s the illegal aliens having all the babies- kick them out, the demand for baby products drops off a cliff. So will prices.
There will be less demand for furniture- so prices will drop. Less demand for clothes. Less demand for hotel rooms. Less demand for cell phones and laptops. Less demands for high-speed Internet.
Less demand for pens, paper clips, paper. That means the cost of business goes down.
The cost of food, restaurants, and fast food declines dramatically, thereby forcing costs down dramatically…
But also, the demand for beer, alcohol and soda. It’s all cheaper. Way cheaper with 50 million less mouths to feed.
You want to throw a catered party? A wedding, birthday party, anniversary party, a business event. All of them will be cheaper- because with less people in America, and therefore less demand, businesses will all be forced to drop their prices.
Without 50+ million illegals- the costs of welfare, food stamps, disability, housing allowances, Medicaid, Obamacare and every other government program will drop dramatically.
And of course, you’ll no longer be waiting weeks or months to see a doctor or specialist. You’ll walk in the next day after you call for an appointment.
So, the next time you see “the affordability crisis” on the news, or hear it from the lips of a lying Democrat, or experience it yourself at the grocery store, or gas station…
Now you know what caused it, and who is to blame.
Now you know there are at least 50 million reasons for inflation, high prices and our affordability crisis.
50 million criminal foreign invaders who broke into this country and made your life far more expensive.
And now you know how to solve the problem- KICK THEM OUT.
