A Trump Supporter Said Theyre “Living On Credit Cards” And Begged Him To Send A… | Latest Lifestyle News
Hi, I’m Alexa, and I usually track the unemployment rate, cost of eggs/beef, gas prices, inflation, and more under the Trump administration. BUT, the numbers aren’t enough anymore. We also need to examine how Donald Trump’s economy is affecting everyday people — especially his loyal following.

Previously, we spoke about the repercussions of Trump signing his One Big, Beautiful Bill into law in July, which NPR reported will ultimately lead to about 12 million more people being without health insurance by 2034…

…including about 300,000 children on Medicaid in Iowa. However, when one resident tried to point this out to his Trump-supporting brother…
…his brother was less than sympathetic. In fact, he actually seemed to support the reductions for children as long as they didn’t affect his own kids.
But for those who don’t know, Iowa’s Medicaid and children’s health insurance program is largely known by its nickname: Healthy and Well-Kids in Iowa or…hawk-i. So, yes. This guy’s brother did, in fact, unknowingly vote against his own children’s access to healthcare.
YIKES!

If you thought that was bad, we have a new contender for regretful Trump supporters entering the ring. Allow me to introduce you to Gray, a Trump supporter who declared “tyranny” would be “moving out” of the White House on inauguration day. Now, following the tariff impacts on medication, Gay’s recent comment on one of Trump’s posts sings a different tune.
“I hate to say this BUT wtf did you do to our medication copays!?” Gray wrote while tagging Trump directly. “I just got charged $98 on what was $40 last month!”
“We are already hurting on fixed incomes with rising cost of food! Not receiving COLA that is enough to substation us!!!!”
(I believe they meant ‘sustain.’)
Gray continues, “We are living on credit cards!!! Then what? Credit cards are going to crash very soon with not enough funds to pay bills and eat!!!! SENIORS ON SS NEED HELP!!! Like yesterday! We are all in trouble!”
Gray even goes on to beg for a stimulus check.
And they conclude by declaring, “I am going to have to file bankruptcy the FIRST TIME IN MY 60 plus years!!!”
While it’s hardly pleasurable to see another human struggling, many who stumbled upon Gray’s post couldn’t help but note that the writing was on the wall.
“She’s missed a lot of memos, apparently,” one Reddit user reacted. “Trump’s first term was horrendous, and many of us were shouting from the rooftops about how bad his second term would be. She should probably get her eyes and hearing checked, but now she can’t afford to.”
Other suggested she adhere to one of MAGA’s most infamous sayings and pull herself up by her bootstraps instead of asking for a stimulus check.
“I’m sure the Amazon warehouse is hiring, get to work!” one person said, tongue-in-cheek.
“Lazy seniors just don’t have the work ethic like they used to!” another mimicked.
And even more reminded Gray that in Trump’s era, even bankruptcy can’t save all.
“She’s gonna be real mad when she finds out Trump revoked medical debt being unreportable to credit companies. Since she’s still gonna be on the hook for it after that bankruptcy.”
What are your thoughts on Gray’s situation? Let me know in the comments.
