A "Golden Age" where your premiums doubled, tripled, even quadrupled. Where 750+ hospitals face closure. Where 15 million people are losing coverage. And where billionaires got $1.5 trillion richer. Golden for them. A disaster for you. #SOTU2026

#Trumpflation has made grocery prices higher, healthcare prices higher, childcare higher, and costs are rising for families as he’s taken funding from healthcare to pay for terrifying children, families, and hard-working immigrants. Not okay. #TrumpsStateOfDelusion #SOTU
