    Now the race is back on. A former prosecutor or a convicted felon? Hummmm

  • Higher tariffs and more tax cuts? Bad for the economy.😮 Stephen Moore isn't an economist. He's an ideologue from the Heritage Foundation. Calling it a "Think Tank" is an oxymoron.😂😂

    The trump tax cuts wasnt't a success. Minor economic impact but a rapid increase debt

    Having Stephen Moore on the show is truly an embarrassment . He was almost arrested for not paying child support and didn’t pay his taxes for 10 years and the IRS put a tax lean on him and garnished his wages . He’s completely legally and financially illiterate and CNBC should be held accountable for allowing him to speak as if he knows anything . Shame on the network .
  • Forgot ever getting a rate cut under Trump. Inflation is going to skyrocket

    JD Vance doesn't sound like a "free marketeer". Has he listened to what Vance said at the RNC?

    You cant compare economies multiple years apart. Circumstances did change. The best way to compare economies is to look at comparable countries (G7) and compare growth, unemployment etc. By doing that Biden is extremly succesful and did outperform economic forecasts and other countries (G7) massivly.

    Better for the economy? Democrats. Better for Rich people to get lower taxes and be able to avoid the IRS? Republicans.

    Ask a young couple trying to buy a house how the economy is.

    I'm an independent voter but I honestly struggle more financially now than the Trump era. The best examples I can give is the shoe prices The pair of shoes under Trump cost $45 the same exact pair of shoes now cost $55
