Three-time Trump voter on his failure to fix the economy:
"My kids' daycare went up. I can't afford the cost of food. Using credit cards for everyday expenses. No money left after their bills are paid. Just a whole bunch of financial mess... I'm very let down. I feel like it's only gotten worse."

Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached.
Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at?
Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.

Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.
