Yes! But first i'm saving up to buy a suit.
Gonna be harder to save $$ in the Trump economy. It's been horrible thus far. Higher gas, groceries, sustained high mortgage rates, stagnant stock market, and latest jobs report today was the weakest in two years.
Almost none of what you said is true.
For example: gas prices

I totally agree OP.
And I think his cabinet is far more competent and willing to do the hard work than anyone in a Biden’s cabinet.
Let's see. . .
President said he didn't know if he is required to defend the Constitution
Defense sec doesn't make sure who is on a Signal chat discussing an upcoming attack.
HHS sec issues a report with phony citations and keeps citing invalidated "research" that "proves" vaccination causes autism, also does not know that less that 30% of people with autism have the profound level of disability he describes
Although not a cabinet post, a DHS director who literally does not know the definition of habeas corpus
Have repeatedly had to rehire people after accidentally firing critical employees of several agencies
I'm not sure what you define as competence.

I was even in Southern VA this past weekend and paid $3.15/gal and gas is normally much cheaper down there. I always pay in the $2.79-2.99 range down there.
Eggs were $4.29 this weekend when I bought them. Those aren't organic or free range or even brown. Those are just normal, large white chicken eggs.

You seem to confuse the things Trump says with actually doing them.
Border crisis perhaps, he has not actually helped the rest.
Gas prices are up
Egg prices are related to avian influenza surges (and I said the same under Biden)
Inflation was already stabilizing before Trump as the Fed dropped the rate by 0.5 in Sept, 2024
He pretends to remove government bloat but much of what he claims to remove, he doesn't actually remove, and his "big beautiful bill" that drastically increases the US deficit (and caused our credit rating to drop, driving mortgage rates back up), is a NIGHTMARE.
My 401k, while up, is below my annual estimate of where it should be because his tariffs keep effing over the stock market.
And meanwhile, we have RFK Jr and Hesgeth. We have Signalgate. Utter embarassments.

How do you like those apples-to-apples?
On this same day during his own second term (June 4, 2013), Obama’s average job approval rating was 47.1 percent. Today, exactly 12 years later, during Trump’s second term, The Donald enjoys an average approval rating of 47.5 percent.
Trump is also scoring better than former President George W. Bush did on this same day during Bush’s second term (June 4, 2005), 45.9 percent for Bush compared to 47.5 percent for Trump.
A .04% jump in 12 years, validated by a completely unbiased and objective statistical source for one day out of his entire presidency. Cool story bro, this puts everything in perspective.
Uh huh, sure. Ignore the multiple polls all showing trends in the same direction (Trump approval up, GOP approval up on issues including economy and taxes, Dem approval down) and keep your head in the sand.
Polls mean nothing in terms of how objectively good or bad a President's actions are.
In the words of David Mitchell: "You can't trust people, people listen to Coldplay and voted for the Nazis."
That 47.5% of people who approve of Trump would have and did disapprove of anything Obama did simply because the was black and a Democrat. He could have cured cancer and given every house in America a puppy that crapped gold bars and they'd still disapprove.
the only thing your polls prove is that at least 40% of America is irredeemably stupid.
