Truth Or Consequences – October 2025

Oct 31, 2025

The Trump administration’s economic and healthcare pledges crumbled in 2025. The promised job growth and manufacturing revival were revealed as nothing more than falsehoods, built on selectively manipulated data. Factory hiring did not just slow; it reversed, hurting rural communities. Moreover, the easing of drug price controls caused essential medications like insulin to skyrocket in price. With costs outpacing wages, many families faced serious financial strain. Instead of addressing these challenges head-on, the administration chose to deflect blame, leaving ordinary Americans to shoulder the financial fallout.
