To celebrate his 80th birthday, Donald Trump is throwing himself a $60 million<\/a> UFC fight on the White House lawn as he tells Americans that he doesn\u2019t care about their financial struggles.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Trump has spent his second term in office spending taxpayer dollars on his vanity projects like his ballroom, gilding statues in D.C., and repainting the reflecting pool \u2014 all while doing nothing to fulfill his promise to lower prices on Day One. Trump has told Americans what he really thinks about their concerns, admitting he doesn\u2019t think about Americans\u2019 financial situations \u201ceven a little bit<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n As Trump, JD Vance, and the rest of the administration continue their unpopular war with Iran and gas prices remain above $4 per gallon for the third consecutive month, the birthday boy\u2019s message to Americans is that it\u2019s \u201cnot a big price to pay<\/a>\u201d as he admits he doesn\u2019t \u201cworry<\/a>\u201d about high gas prices and declares \u201cI love the inflation<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n In response,<\/em> DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement: <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDonald Trump\u2019s callous disregard for the pain he\u2019s causing working families while he throws himself lavish birthday parties is the ultimate betrayal. Because of Trump, Americans are paying more for less, taking out loans to pay for higher healthcare costs, and footing the bill for his unpopular war that he can\u2019t find a way to end \u2014 and he\u2019s too busy rubbing elbows with the ultra-wealthy elite and his yes-men in the White House to care. Trump has all the wrong priorities \u2014 and Americans will remember in November.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n REMINDER: <\/strong>There\u2019s always something in it for Trump. Trump purchased<\/a> tens of thousands of dollars worth of stock in UFC\u2019s parent company, TKO Holding Group, as he was promoting the fight and just two weeks after the White House fights were announced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s no wonder Trump\u2019s approval ratings are in the gutter. A new poll this week found 70% of Americans<\/a> disapprove of Trump\u2019s handling of the cost of living, while another poll showed two-thirds of voters<\/a> blame his policies for higher prices.<\/p>\n The post Trump Caps Off His Birthday with a Party for Himself as He Tells Americans He Doesn\u2019t Care About Their Economic Struggles<\/a> appeared first on Democrats<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n
