What the People Say: Has Trump Adequately Addressed the Cost of Living?

Has President Trump adequately addressed the issue of affordability? NTD Sam Wong was out on the Las Vegas strip to hear from the people. >> Do you think President Trump has been doing an adequate job in addressing the issue with the cost of living? >> Uh for the resistance he has, which is agenda, what he's trying to do with the make America great again and maja. Yeah, he's he's done a pretty damn good job. >> I think he's working on it, but I can't see any results yet. >> He's doing too many things at once. He needs to finish one and then go to the next one. >> In my opinion, yes. I mean, he's bringing down energy costs, which will bring down other costs. I'm in manufacturing, so I see the benefits of what he's doing, but I think it's going to take a little bit longer for the regular population to see that. >> He's only has 9 8 months, 10 months in. I'm I'm I'm I'm fairly happy with it with his performance so far. >> I say it's too early yet to tell. see what happens by next year and I think we'll have a better idea. >> There are so many things on the agenda. But this is what hits home for for the Americans, you know, is what's going out of our pockets. >> The Trump administration has been saying that a lot of the economic pain that we're feeling right now are residual effects from the previous administration. Would you say you agree? >> Yes. >> Well, I agree 100%. It's getting better. It's going to take time to fix that mess. >> There's no comment. I mean, half the country knows 90 million people voted for Trump. You know, it was a landslide. He's the man and here we go. Three more years and then we'll take it from there. >> Biden did the same thing. He blamed Trump for the first three years of his administration. So, but >> so now they're in. So, they take responsibility. >> Just one final question on tariffs. Uh are you willing to stick around for the effect to kick in? >> Yeah, the country itself is going to benefit from the money we're taking in. There's pain that goes along with that. There's an adjustment period, but in the long run, it's the best move. It's going to take a long time to get jobs back, you know, manufacturing jobs especially, but you have to build factories and all that stuff. >> It's not going to happen tomorrow. It's going to take some time. >> I think Trump just used that as leverage against a lot of countries. I mean, because they weren't paying enough tariffs all along. I don't know. It's hard to tell what's going to happen with that. >> Absolutely. We ain't got a choice. But he's right. They've been other countries been taking advantage of us for a long time. And I'm finally Glad I get to see my lifetime of president stepping up to the plate and putting America first.
