Just days before Trump’s second term officially began, a video circulated online showing moving trucks outside the White House with the caption: “Biden is moving out.” A MAGA supporter shared it on X and added, “Trump is taking the garbage out !”
But now that grocery costs continue climbing, that same supporter is posting a very different message. Tagging the president directly, she wrote, “please help us seniors ! Could use some extra $$ the economy is killing us We voted for you.”
In another post aimed at Trump, she added, “hey Pres trump when u gonna lower groceries for us ? Us seniors can barely eat DO SOMETHING ! Forget about Epstein he’s dead help us who’s alive !! Please ! We voted for u.”
And in yet another plea, she said, “President trump – I voted for you – are you aware we are struggling ? I’m a senior from Michigan and cannot afford food . The tariffs have raised dollar store prices now ( probably some gouging ) please help us . I’m going to think twice next election . !”
Reactions online were blunt:
“‘I’m going to think twice next election!’ Girl, we’d all be thrilled if you would think even ONCE, about anything!” —u/SheneedaCocktail
“It’s always so funny watching them beg him and act like they know him personally.” —u/CaseyChaos
“They feel like they have a personal relationship with him because he’s their lord and savior, I guess.” —u/atuarre
“Forget about Epstein? Trump and the whole GOP would like nothing better than for the populace to forget. Release the Epstein files!” —u/DiamondplateDave
“You know who pledged to address grocery prices and gouging? That lady you didn’t vote for. So you sold the next generation’s future for some cheap plastic trinkets and cheaper groceries. And you got neither, fool.” —u/steve-eldridge
“If you ask someone, ‘Which party is the most likely to have a policy proposal intended to ensure seniors and vets have enough food to eat?’ and they answer, ‘Republican,’ you are dealing with a seriously uninformed person. Voting for Republicans and expecting assistance is a bit like drinking hot sauce because you have heartburn.” —u/CaptainZeroDark30
“Love the whole ‘are you aware?’ Yeah, and he doesn’t care. Wild how they thought a guy who has gold-plated walls would give a crap about people who make minimum wage.” —Anonymous
“Price gouging aside, why would a dollar store, which likely gets 80% or more of their stock from China, not raise their prices due to Trump’s tariffs? These people are dumber than rocks.” —u/UnlikelyKaiju
“They talk to Trump like a little kid writing to Santa. At least with Santa, they would have better luck.” —u/mr_greedee
And finally:
“He doesn’t care you’re struggling. You’re less valuable to him than a grain of sand underneath Mar-a-Lago.”
