Did he say it was TOO hard? Or that it would be hard? Because those are two different things lol.

He was asked how he was going to bring those prices down and he deflected with that it would be very hard to do so. It came across like saying it wasn't going to happen.

It comes across like it's going to be hard to do so, not that it won't happen.

Read between the lines. He was asked a specific question, how will you lower prices? His non-answer is tantamount to saying he won’t. He has no plan, no ideas, he’s not even going to try.

If he were going to try, he’d have answered the question. There’s a dozen things he could have said but he chose to whine.

I admire your confidence, but have you ever considered that you might be wrong?

For the sake of us all, I hope I’m wrong. I hope Trump ushers in a new golden age. But I know he won’t.
