Two recent stories that show how out of touch this Admin (and MAGA in general) are with the reality of our country:

First, Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy’s “let-them-eat-cake” answer to fixing air travel is to dress nicer on planes like the old days (of course, the old days included free fancy meals for everyone, great service, and checked bags for free:

Here’s the link to Gavin Newsom’s response: Gavin Newsom Slams Sean Duffy For Urging People To Dress Nicely On Thanksgiving Flights, Transportation Secretary Hits Back With 'Skinny Jeans' Jibe - United Airlines Holdings (NASDAQ:UAL) - Benzinga

Newsom got it right: “Sean Duffy eliminated fines for airlines that delay or cancel your flights — making it easier for them to disrupt your travel.”

Duffy - what a clueless d*^k.

Second, even worse and more clueless, Treasury Secretary Soctt Bessent’s “let-them-eat-cake” answer to coping with inflation is… just move (with half of people in the U.S. having income of $45K or less - see link below - he has no idea what it takes to survive, let alone up and move):

Stats:

Finally, we all know Trump’s “let-them-eat-cake” answer to higher prices - just lie that prices are down, not up (can’t bring myself to link to his social media posts, but his false claims are all over the place - trust me)

Perhaps we need some strong messaging on how utterly out-of-touch these guys are with the economic and stressed-family-financial-world almost all of us live in.
