" DJT is hurl away the last 100 class of advancement . "
Ever since Donald Trump became President earlier this year, life has begun to feel unstable for most Americans for a myriad of reasons. (Can you believe it’s almost been 90 days of this?)
For good example , if you require to know what he didjustlast workweek , learn out thisarticle here .
But how exactly has Trump’s presidency been affecting Americans so far? Well,ProffesorOfPainasked: “Americans, how do things really look in your day-to-day life after Trump’s presidency began?” and so many people (like almost 20k) shared their thoughts. Here are some of the top answers below.
1.“I am a federal scientist for NOAA and — although we didn’t have high hopes to not getting fired — we just found out we’re getting dismantled completely, sooooo. Other jobs in science fields are getting scarcer by the minute, as well. It sucks!”
2.“Weekly status meetings now include the phrase: ‘This client’s plans are now on hold because of the tariffs’ quite a lot.”

" My weekly meetings include a mass of ' update on these regulations / deregulations and remotion of section we ’re supposed to answer to . ' It ’s very perplexing how chop-chop everything keep exchange , snap back , etc . "

3.“This one guy at work can’t retire now, so who knows how much longer I have to deal with his BS.”
4.“I work at a seaport, so longshoremen and truck drivers are definitely freaking out as their jobs are vaporizing. This is in Oakland. Virtually none (or maybe very few) of these people are open Trump supporters.”

" Fewer trade - > fewer ships - > fewer people take to unload ships . "
5.“A lot of my friends have been laid off. My wife lost her job. My bills are higher than ever. Groceries cost more. Literally, everything is more expensive.”
6.“More anxiety. People seem ruder and more stressed. Everything is more expensive; it’s awful, exhausting, and terrifying.”

" Also , people who ask help and are trying to get in with a shrink are on longsighted waiting lists because everyone needs something to cope . I ’m currently on three waiting list … "

7.“My 401(k) is getting hammered.”
8.“Day to day? Fine — and I think that’s true for most people. And that’s the problem. Trump is doing real damage to our country, but the inertia is huge, and most of the problems he’s creating now won’t have serious consequences for months or years. So people are inclined to see all the complaints as Chicken Little talk. They don’t understand why we built all these systems the way we did. They don’t understand why our government powers were separated like they were. They don’t understand trade, supply chain, or international relations. They don’t understand any of it. They just know their day-to-day is fine, and Democrats are complaining about stuff, and they’re glad someone finally stood up against trans individuals and immigrants. People who have retirement savings saw it take a huge hit, but even there, it doesn’t impact your day-to-day… yet.”

9.“My kid came home from school and told me she has friends missing. We don’t know if they ran from ICE or were taken, but ICE is here, and people are going missing.”
10.“My father-in-law, a Vietnam vet who has worked religiously for his entire life, teared up because they are raising his taxes, his insurance, and increasing his pharmaceutical cost as well as the cost of living. He’s spent his entire retirement terrified they will take away the social security he paid so much into. My friend’s mom cried as she was explaining she would only live a week without her medication, and she’s having to give up living on her own due to the cost of living. I lost my job in a nonprofit and had to let a staff of 15 go. My family of nurses, doctors, and scientists have been let go due to funding. No one around me has not been affected in a negative way. We are all poor or barely breaking into the middle class.”
" So , I doubt anyone is losing in the gunstock grocery . But we lose daily with the high cost of living and the unneeded strain on the senior . Then , we have to come to damage with what we will accept in our lives on a everyday basis . While feel incapacitated , knowing it ’s up to our generation to furbish up the problems and not lead them to our child . "

11.“Watching the collapse of America in real-time is a nightmare. Everything I was told America stood for throughout my entire life is being thrown out the window in weeks, with zero fight from our elected representatives. DJT is throwing away the last 100 years of progress. He has destroyed the economy, jobs, leadership, science, education, social safety nets, civil rights, and human rights and is selling America’s resources and future to the highest bidder. He is a corrupt crime syndicate who is robbing the country blind. He wants to buy crypto with our gold reserves — that alone should tell you everything. Protests will increase in size. Eventually, he will use a stupid excuse of protests to declare Martial Law and suspend elections. He is a traitor to the Constitution, his office, and the American Dream.”
12.“My family has advised me to carry passports/birth certificates and SSNs in the instance someone questions citizenship. I am a graduate student, and I was due to apply for an NIH (National Institute of Health) grant but was unable to do so due to harsh attitudes towards DEI. TheNSF (National Science Foundation) fellowshipI applied for reduced the number of awards given by 56% this year, and I was not one of the lucky ones who got awarded. As a result, I continue to work a full-time job along with my full-time research efforts (working seven days a week).”
" This get to me less present for my partner and stepchild while I pursue higher education with the intention of getting a better - paying chore to afford the rebel price of living . My current job , which pays me , has paused furtherance due to University funding worry , so I am being given additional duty with no additional recompense .
My entire gynaecologist practice session shut down in other March , and I currently no longer have a GYN . I did not ask so many aspect of my life to be affected by this administration so quickly , and being upset is an understatement of the feelings I have on a regular ground . "

13.“I am an optometrist. There has been an uptick in patients with longstanding autoimmune diseases having flares of their uveitis and other ocular inflammatory conditions likely due to stress.”
14.“Political dialogue among friends and family has always been fraught, but it’s at a whole new low now. Half of my family can’t talk about politics at all without burning up friendships. The Right has gone full ‘Dear Leader,’ and The Left cannot find a suitable candidate to go up against someone with dozens of felonies who sexually assaulted a woman, and set up a fake school to defraud his fans and pretend the election was stolen from him. So, every day? Picking and choosing what you say, freaking out or holding your breath, and looking at all our leaders as failures. It’s raining a lot, too.”

15.“The anxiety is near constant. I’m wondering all the time what fresh hell I will read about next. It’s strange to continue with mundane tasks like oil changes or edging the lawn when our democracy is being dismantled, and innocent people are being kidnapped and sent to death camps.”
16.“I’m a mental health therapist. I’ve literally had client sessions to help them deal with their anxiety about what happens next.”

17.“My non-natural-born citizen friends don’t go out as much. I’m in software sales, and people are way more budget-conscious. I spend part of my days figuring out how to leave the US. Accounts are in the dumps. My local Whole Foods has no eggs. As a Jewish person, I’m disgusted at how the White House is weaponizing antisemitism to forgo the First Amendment.”
