Since the collapse of Donald Trump and JD Vance’s weak “deal” with Iran, their reckless war rages on with no end in sight or relief for the millions of Americans who are paying the price. Over the past four months, Trump and Vance have waged an unnecessary war with Iran, and the question remains: What good has this conflict brought to American families? So far, Trump’s unpopular war with Iran has cost Americans over $1,000 per household and roughly $150 billion overall — enough to cover a year of healthcare for about 16 million Americans. Back at home, working families are struggling to stay afloat as the cost of everything from gas to groceries spikes thanks to Trump and Vance’s war with Iran.
The contrast couldn’t be clearer: While Trump and Vance shamelessly continue another useless, unpopular war, American families can’t even afford the gas they need to get to work, to put food on the table, or pay rent to keep a roof over their heads.
