James Talarico, speaking in an interview on The Diary Of A CEO, says people backed President Trump for good reasons, including members of his own family. He says that more than a year in, the promises haven't been kept: costs are up largely because of tariffs, a new war in Iran he says costs a billion dollars a day is driving up gas prices, and the Epstein files still haven't been fully released.

And that's not an unreasonable thing to look for when you're hurting. And so people put their faith in President Trump for good reasons, right? They thought he was gonna lower costs. They thought he was gonna end the forever wars that we were all sick and tired of. They thought he was gonna release the Epstein files. They thought he was gonna drain the swamp. I mean, I have members of my family who voted for President Trump and people that I love. And those are the reasons they voted for President Trump. form. And those are pretty good reasons. I think, you know, more than a year into this administration, those promises have not been kept. Everything is now more expensive, largely because of tariffs. We have a new war in Iran that no one asked for. It's costing us a billion dollars a day that's driving up gas prices. The Epstein files have still not fully been released. And the swamp is bigger than it's ever been before. And so people are feeling like they've been conned.
