Trump Admits Economic Plan Brings Short-Term Pain, but Destination Unclear

US President Donald Trump has acknowledged the economic plan he unveiled is causing short-term pain for some Americans. However, administration officials have remained vague about what a “Golden Age” looks like and how long it will take to achieve.

While Trump has stated that his plan aims to propel the nation towards this future era of prosperity, officials have been reluctant to provide specific details on the destination or timeline. This lack of clarity has raised concerns among experts and critics who are skeptical about the plan’s effectiveness and sustainability.
