The impossible is happening on the West Coast: things are actually becoming affordable again. Just ten days after President Trump's inauguration, even the most outrageously expensive liberal strongholds in California, Oregon, and Washington are witnessing dramatic drops in housing costs and living expenses that Democrats said could never happen.
From San Francisco's notorious $4,000 studio apartments to Seattle's sky-high rent prices, the Trump Effect is already delivering real relief to working Americans who have been priced out of their own communities by years of failed Democrat policies.
This economic turnaround comes despite the predictable meltdown from the radical left, who are desperately trying to spin Trump's early success as somehow bad for America. Social media is buzzing with liberal cope, including claims of a so-called "Trump slump" affecting tourism. One bitter leftist tweeted: "Why the 'Trump slump' affecting US tourism will be a big problem in 2026. Travelers are staying away from the U.S. for a host of reasons, including safety concerns."
What these Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers don't understand is that Americans don't need foreign tourists when we're finally making our own country affordable for our own citizens again. That's called putting AMERICA FIRST.
"The law of supply and demand hasn't been repealed by progressive wishful thinking," said one California real estate analyst. "Trump's policies are already signaling a return to economic sanity."
Meanwhile, unhinged leftists continue their conspiracy theories, with one Twitter user bizarrely claiming Trump "invented the Epstein files" - apparently forgetting that it was Trump's Justice Department that first went after Jeffrey Epstein's network while Democrats looked the other way for decades.
The truth is simple: Trump's promise to drill for American energy, secure the border, and cut government waste through Elon Musk's DOGE initiative is already sending signals to markets that sanity is returning to Washington. Energy costs are dropping in anticipation of unleashed American production, and businesses are preparing for the regulatory relief that made Trump's first term an economic powerhouse.
For too long, working families have been forced to choose between crushing rent payments and basic necessities while Democrat politicians virtue-signaled about climate change and open borders. Now, real Americans are finally getting the relief they voted for.
How long before even the most stubborn liberals admit that Trump's America First policies work better than their failed progressive experiments?
