Everything Trump Touches Turns to Sh*t

1. Trump’s Iran War Is Escalating

U.S. strikes against Iran triggered a broader conflict in the region.

The Strait of Hormuz—responsible for about 20% of global oil shipments—has been disrupted, sending energy markets into panic. 

Polls show most Americans expect the war to drag on and drive prices even higher. 

2. Gas Prices Are Rising Fast

Oil has surged above $100 per barrel, pushing gas prices higher across the U.S. 

In some places like California, prices have already topped $5 per gallon. 

Trump has dismissed the increase as a temporary “glitch.”

3. A Terrible Jobs Report

The latest report shows the U.S. economy lost 92,000 jobs and unemployment ticked up to 4.4%. 

Markets dropped following the report as investors reacted to the worsening outlook.

4. Prices Are Still Rising

Energy costs are feeding broader inflation fears.

Economists warn the combination of weak job growth and rising prices could push the U.S. toward stagflation. 

5. The Big Question

Trump promised cheaper gas, a stronger economy, and fewer foreign entanglements.

Instead, Americans are watching prices rise, jobs disappear, and another war unfold in the Middle East.
