Speaker 1: Joe Biden has been trying to play both sides of
Speaker 1: the conflict with Israel and the terrorists Hamas has blid
Speaker 1: of the Palestinians. Now it's coming back to Biden in
Speaker 1: the rear end because apparently no one is happy with
Speaker 1: what he is doing.
Speaker 2: He was trying to play kate with young people.
Speaker 1: That's the reason why he would not call out what
Speaker 1: was happening on college campuses, because his re election campaign
Speaker 1: understands just how important it is to.
Speaker 2: Get young people to come out and vote for him.
Speaker 1: The problem is older people that want to support Israel
Speaker 1: have now had enough of Joe Biden's foreign policy of
Speaker 1: backing or well maybe I should say not backing Israel
Speaker 1: and also not standing up to terrorism. There is a
Speaker 1: new ras Musen pull out that is going to be
Speaker 1: music to your ears if you're a Trump supporter, and
Speaker 1: that is this Trump has widened his lead over Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: Now let me break down this pulling for you so
Speaker 1: you understand. This survey, which was really on Friday midday,
Speaker 1: found that in a three way contest between Biden, Trump,
Speaker 1: and RFK Junior, forty six percent of likely US voters
Speaker 1: would choose Trump. Thirty six percent say they would choose Biden,
Speaker 1: and in a shockingly high number, more than anyone realized
Speaker 1: it was going to be, RFK Junior is at nine percent. Now,
Speaker 1: where's the majority of this nine percent coming from that
Speaker 1: RFK Junior now has in this new poll? It is
Speaker 1: coming from young socialists, communists, and Green Party individuals. Now,
Speaker 1: in a five way match, including the Green Party candidate
Speaker 1: Jill Stein and forver Harvard professor Cornell West, forty eight
Speaker 1: percent say they would vote for Trump, thirty six percent
Speaker 1: for Biden, eight percent only moving one percent for r
Speaker 1: FK Junior and one percent for West and one percent
Speaker 1: for Stock.
Speaker 2: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: This third party candidacy of RFK Junior is hurting and
Speaker 1: is a real alternative for many Democrats who are unhappy
Speaker 1: with Joe Biden. Now, the current poll was conducted amid
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's fraud trial in New York City, which also
Speaker 1: at the moment seems to be backfiring as well. Now,
Speaker 1: let me tell you some other things that we found
Speaker 1: in this poll. Seventy one percent of voters say they
Speaker 1: are excited about the twenty twenty four presidential election, including
Speaker 1: forty seven percent who say they are very excited, meaning
Speaker 1: that there's probably going to be pretty decent election turnout
Speaker 1: because people are upset with what's happening in this country.
Speaker 1: They're upset with the cost of living, services, goods, home prices,
Speaker 1: interest rates, travel expenses, you name it, food, basic things, inflation.
Speaker 1: It goes back to the issue of it's the economy stupid.
Speaker 1: We did not see the same type of enthusiasm going
Speaker 1: into the twenty election cycle. Just so you understand, fifty
Speaker 1: nine percent, by the way of Trump voters say they're
Speaker 1: very excited, and fifty percent of Biden voters say the
Speaker 1: same thing. So there's more enthusiasm on the Republican side. Now,
Speaker 1: before you get too excited about that, that is traditionally
Speaker 1: normal the party who is not in charge. Okay, just
Speaker 1: so you understand, I'm going to say this again, the
Speaker 1: party who is usually not in charge of the White
Speaker 1: House has more excitement around their candidate because they want
Speaker 1: to get the White House back. So that number can
Speaker 1: be a little bit misleading. Now, I'm glad that there's
Speaker 1: fifty nine percent of Trump voters say they're very excited,
Speaker 1: but that fifty percent of Biden voters.
Speaker 2: Say the same thing tells you.
Speaker 1: It's a very partisan aspect of this poll, and even
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, who I don't believe a lot of Democrats
Speaker 1: are actually excited about the poll numbers are showing that
Speaker 1: they'll lie and tell you they are. Now sixty percent
Speaker 1: of Republicans say they're very excited about the presidential election,
Speaker 1: and forty five percent of Democrats say the same thing.
Speaker 2: That is a very telling poll.
Speaker 1: B What that means is Republicans are excited about their
Speaker 1: chances of taking back the White House, and Democrats are saying,
Speaker 1: we'd rather delay this election. We're not excited about this
Speaker 1: election because it doesn't seem like it's going in our direction.
Speaker 1: Right now, here's something else that's interesting. Undecided voters ultimately
Speaker 1: make the big decisions, right they have the biggest impact. Well,
Speaker 1: here's what we know about undecided. Thirty six percent of
Speaker 1: voters not affiliated with either parties say they're excited about
Speaker 1: this election.
Speaker 2: Whether they're excited.
Speaker 1: Because they're angry or they're just excited because they're quote excited,
Speaker 1: I don't know. But in a three way matchup, here's
Speaker 1: what I can tell you. Trump gets eighty percent of
Speaker 1: GOP voters. Biden is it's seventy percent of Democrats because
Speaker 1: Democrats again are not as excited as Trump and Donald
Speaker 1: Trump has united the party among unaffiliated voters.
Speaker 2: This is also very good news.
Speaker 1: Trump is backed by forty four percent of unaffiliated voters
Speaker 1: at the moment and Biden just twenty seven percent. Here's
Speaker 1: something else, fifteen percent say they would choose RFK Junior
Speaker 1: among unaffiliated voters. So it is he, It is helping Trump,
Speaker 1: and it is hurting Biden that RFK Junior is still
Speaker 1: in the race now in a five way matchup, just
Speaker 1: so you know, when it comes down to the issue
Speaker 1: of race, Biden gets thirty four percent of white voters,
Speaker 1: sixty one percent of black voters, which actually that number
Speaker 1: is pretty low, it should be over seventy percent historically,
Speaker 1: and thirty percent just thirty percent of Hispanics and just
Speaker 1: fourteen percent of other minorities. Now what this means, and
Speaker 1: this may be the most telling thing as you pull
Speaker 1: back the curtain on what voters are deciding and what's
Speaker 1: important to them. The Hispanic community is enraged right now
Speaker 1: by the amount of illegal immag that is falling into
Speaker 1: this country because it is affecting their neighborhoods. Okay, more
Speaker 1: than anyone else. The Hispanic community that's having to deal
Speaker 1: with what is happening right now because of illegal immigrants.
Speaker 1: They are furious, absolutely furious with the President of United
Speaker 1: States of America. In a five way matchup, Biden gets
Speaker 1: thirty four percent of white votes, but only thirty percent
Speaker 1: of Hispanics, so he gets more white votes than Hispanic votes.
Speaker 1: That is a nail in the coffin in many ways
Speaker 1: for Joe Biden. He's got to figure out how to
Speaker 1: turn that around before election day now, in either a
Speaker 1: two way or five way match This is also something
Speaker 1: else that's concerning.
Speaker 2: If you're Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: RFK Junior does best among Hispanics and other minorities who say, hey,
Speaker 1: maybe I'm not willing to go all in for Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: but I am willing to go against Joe Biden, whether
Speaker 1: that's not voting at all or voting for RFK.
Speaker 2: Now, what's interesting.
Speaker 1: About RFK Junior is RFK Junior and his platform is
Speaker 1: clearly a socialist platform, and many people that come from
Speaker 1: outside this country, that come from socialist countries have no
Speaker 1: problem with that platform. And that's part of the reason
Speaker 1: why I think RFK Junior is so palatable to them.
Speaker 1: One other thing that I want to pull out this poll,
Speaker 1: a majority of voters forty and above say that they
Speaker 1: would vote for Donald Trump, while Biden Trump are virtually
Speaker 1: tied among those under forty, who are more likely to
Speaker 1: say they'd vote for RFK jor. So again, there is
Speaker 1: a big shift in this country and the next generation
Speaker 1: that's coming up, this new generation of voters, these younger
Speaker 1: voters who they are much more happy to say that
Speaker 1: they are hardcore radical leftists, they don't like America. They're
Speaker 1: the kids that you see on these college campuses right now,
Speaker 1: and they say they'd vote for RFK Junior. Again, that
Speaker 1: is their second choice. Is a lot of them is
Speaker 1: actually Joe Biden. But as long as our FK Junior
Speaker 1: is in this race, it seems to be hurting Joe
Speaker 1: Biden more than anybody, Probably close to a two to
Speaker 1: one margin over a vote being taken away from Trump.
Speaker 1: In other words, every Trump voter that goes for our
Speaker 1: FK Junior or someone that's most likely to vote for
Speaker 1: Trump if he wasn't in there, we're probably taking two
Speaker 1: votes away from Joe Biden. That is a good trade off.
Speaker 1: If you are a conservative. I remember, by the way,
Speaker 1: when we were when Ross Perot got in the race
Speaker 1: in ninety two, and I remember when he got in
Speaker 1: the race in ninety six, and I remember he was
Speaker 1: taking more votes from Republicans than he was taking and
Speaker 1: almost a two to one margin that he was taking specifically.
Speaker 2: From Bill Clinton.
Speaker 1: So without Ross Perot, Bill Clinton would not have been
Speaker 1: President of the United States of America.
Speaker 2: Like it just would not have happened.
Speaker 1: So that you, I want to be clear, if there's
Speaker 1: anybody who should say a thank you know to every
Speaker 1: single it would be Ross pro If you're Bill Clinton,
Speaker 1: all right, I want to break down you look at
Speaker 1: the pulling number that I just gave you and the
Speaker 1: data I just gave you. Where is the what is
Speaker 1: causing these major shifts that are hurting Joe Biden. The
Speaker 1: most number one issue right now clearly seems to be
Speaker 1: the economy. That's still very very true. But number two
Speaker 1: is this playing both sides when it comes to Israel.
Speaker 1: That is just destroying this President of the United States
Speaker 1: of America because he's making older people mad while he's
Speaker 1: also making younger people mad that we're going to vote
Speaker 1: for him. So he's actually losing on both sides by
Speaker 1: not taking a stance and actually just standing up for
Speaker 1: whatever it is he actually believes in.
Speaker 2: He doesn't really seem to believe in anything.
Speaker 1: And that's the other problem here, is that when you
Speaker 1: don't believe in anything, then everybody's.
Speaker 2: Mad at you. And I think he thought, well, I
Speaker 2: can get away with this. Now.
Speaker 1: Let me also tell you what's about to happen in
Speaker 1: Israel so that you understand this, because this is I
Speaker 1: think extremely important. It has come out that Israel has
Speaker 1: now given Hamas Right, which is a terrorist organization, a
Speaker 1: week to either strike a deal or they say a
Speaker 1: Rafa major offensive will begin.
Speaker 2: Now they know what this is going to look like
Speaker 2: because they've.
Speaker 1: Already done it in Gaza, and so they're saying, do
Speaker 1: you want to go through this again? Do you want
Speaker 1: us to destroy it coming after you, or do you
Speaker 1: want to do a deal?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 1: This is the first time that Israel seems to have
Speaker 1: really publicly said, hey, we're ready to do a deal.
Speaker 1: And Israel has said, all right, Hamas, and they're willing
Speaker 1: to negotiate with a terrarists. We are willing to agree
Speaker 1: to a ceasefire deal or we're going to go ahead
Speaker 1: with our military operations in Rafa. Egyptian officials that were
Speaker 1: briefed on the matter said this as the militant group Hamas,
Speaker 1: which is a terrorist group, holds out for what they're
Speaker 1: describing as better terms to ensure its survival. Now, Egypt
Speaker 1: worked with Israel on a revised fire proposal that it
Speaker 1: presented to Hamas last weekend that according to Egyptian officials,
Speaker 1: hamas's political leadership was expected to consult with its military
Speaker 1: wing in Gaza and then respond. The group's military leader
Speaker 1: in Gaza, who is believed to be hiding in tunnels
Speaker 1: in the in the enclave and makes the final decision,
Speaker 1: apparently has not responded yet.
Speaker 2: There's still wait to see what he says. Now.
Speaker 1: Egyptian officials conveyed the message from Israel to Hamas on Thursday,
Speaker 1: so you understand the timeline here and the Central Intelligence
Speaker 1: Agency director Burns we also have been told arrived in
Speaker 1: Cairo Friday morning for meetings with the Egyptian officials about
Speaker 1: efforts to reach a deal. Now, senior Hamas officials are
Speaker 1: expected to arrive in Cairo Saturday to continue the negotiations.
Speaker 2: Egypt has said as well. Now.
Speaker 1: The office of the Israeli Prime Minister net and Yahoo
Speaker 1: declined to comment. Officials for Hamas have also declined to comment.
Speaker 1: It's so weird when you can talk to the terrorists
Speaker 1: this way, like through official press channels.
Speaker 2: It's just unbelievable to me.
Speaker 1: But Egyptian officials are saying Hamas is seeking quote, a
Speaker 1: long term truce and guarantees from the United States government
Speaker 1: that a ceasefire will be respected by Israel. Hamas officials
Speaker 1: have expressed concerns that the latest proposal is still too
Speaker 1: vague and gives Israel room to restart the fighting. The
Speaker 1: State Department didn't respond to requests for comment on this,
Speaker 1: so everybody's leaking everywhere. Now Here's what is in this proposal,
Speaker 1: all right, from what we've been told from Egypt, and
Speaker 1: I have no reasonab believe that they're lying about this,
Speaker 1: based on the fact that they're the ones putting it together.
Speaker 1: The latest proposal calls for an initial period of calm
Speaker 1: for up to forty days, during which Hamas would release
Speaker 1: up to up to thirty three hostages, with a possible
Speaker 1: negotiation of a long term cease fire to follow. Now,
Speaker 1: the following phases would include a ceasefire of at least
Speaker 1: six weeks, during which Hamas and Israel would aim to
Speaker 1: agree on the release of more hostages, and an extended
Speaker 1: pause in fighting that could last up to one year. So,
Speaker 1: in other words, if you're a hostage right now, you're
Speaker 1: looking at and they've got a lot of hostages still
Speaker 1: that there would be, you're probably going to be held
Speaker 1: for a best case scenario another two months up to
Speaker 1: at least a year. That's not good news. If you're
Speaker 1: a hostage right now, right that's not now. Negotiations over
Speaker 1: the ceasefire deal have faltered and quote reignited several times
Speaker 1: since a brief pause in fighting in November, with Hamas
Speaker 1: and Israel apart on key points, including the ability for
Speaker 1: civilians to return their homes in northern Gaza and a
Speaker 1: path towards ending the war. The two sides have mostly
Speaker 1: agreed upon conditions for a swap of Israeli hostages held
Speaker 1: by Hamas and Palastinian prisoners held by Israel.
Speaker 2: Egyptian officials have confirmed.
Speaker 1: Now Netanyahu says the military will send ground forces into Rafa,
Speaker 1: a city on the northern edge of the Gaza strip,
Speaker 1: where more than one million palaicing and civilians are shelter
Speaker 1: sheltering in place, regardless of whether a deal is struck.
Speaker 1: The Israeli military has said Rafa is Hamas's last stronghold,
Speaker 1: but behind closed doors, Israeli officials are considering postponing the
Speaker 1: Raffa invasion indefinitely if a long term deal is struck,
Speaker 1: Egyptian officials have confirmed. Now, let's talk about the terrorists
Speaker 1: in Hamas real quick, all right. The Hamas terrorist officials
Speaker 1: have voice concerns that bb right Nott in Yahoo was
Speaker 1: provoking the group into refusing the proposal in order to
Speaker 1: invade Rafa and then blame Hamas for the failure of
Speaker 1: the negotiations. The group is expected to respond to the
Speaker 1: proposal with a counter offer rather than immediately reject it,
Speaker 1: according to Egyptian officials.
Speaker 2: So there's a lot of politics that are now being
Speaker 2: played here. Now.
Speaker 1: The Secretary of State, he's pretty worthless. Anthony Blincoln, he
Speaker 1: visited Israel on Wednesday. He said it it was up
Speaker 1: to the up to Hamas to accept the ceasefire deal
Speaker 1: that's on the table. He was asked about Netnya, who's
Speaker 1: threats to attack Rafa regardless, he said, the Israeli Prime
Speaker 1: Minister could speak for himself, saying, quote Hamas will have
Speaker 1: to make its own judgments about the threats on Rafa
Speaker 1: And that's pretty much all he had to say. Now,
Speaker 1: net Naho making it very clear, we're not screwing around here.
Speaker 1: You got a week either do the deal or don't
Speaker 1: do the deal, and we're coming. And net Nyahu remains
Speaker 1: under a lot of pressure in Israel to get the
Speaker 1: release of these hostages that were taken to Gaza on
Speaker 1: October seventh. There's one hundred and twenty eight hostages from
Speaker 1: the attack that we're being told to remain in Gaza.
Speaker 2: At least thirty five of those.
Speaker 1: One twenty eight have been confirmed to have been have
Speaker 1: died or been murdered. That according to the recently updated
Speaker 1: figures from Israel. Israeli and American officials have privately estimated
Speaker 1: that the number of dead could be actually, in fact,
Speaker 1: much higher than the thirty five official deaths out of
Speaker 1: the one twenty eight. They believe it could be actually
Speaker 1: more than half from what I've been told. Now, if
Speaker 1: you believe the Palestinians Health Ministry, which I don't, because
Speaker 1: they lie all the time. A perfect example of their
Speaker 1: lying is when they said Israel bomb their hospital was
Speaker 1: actually a Hamas rocket, that misfire that hit the parking garage,
Speaker 1: not the actual hospital. So they're prolific liars, just so
Speaker 1: you know. But they say that more than thirty four
Speaker 1: thousand Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since the star
Speaker 1: of the war.
Speaker 2: Most of them civilians.
Speaker 1: The figure, by the way, doesn't specify how many were combatants, which.
Speaker 2: I would love to note.
Speaker 1: Now I don't believe the thirty four thousand number, and
Speaker 1: the reason why I don't believe it is because they
Speaker 1: lie all the time.
Speaker 2: They lie twenty four to seven. Let's just make that
Speaker 2: very very very clear. So let's get back to Biben.
Speaker 2: The politics here.
Speaker 1: This issue is hurting him in his reelection because he's
Speaker 1: had to placate the radicals, the extremists, the Marxist, the
Speaker 1: so shells, the extreme of his party who are funding
Speaker 1: these protests all over the country now in college campuses.
Speaker 1: But I want you to hear what Democrat Cliburn, James
Speaker 1: Cliburn had to say when he was being asked about
Speaker 1: Joe Biden now and the problems with this policy on
Speaker 1: college campuses that just isn't working.
Speaker 2: Listen, I'm going to.
Speaker 3: Start with this because you just heard the eighty percent
Speaker 3: of young people who disapprove of the way that Biden
Speaker 3: has handled the Israel hamas War. I want to ask
Speaker 3: you about this article that came out from Axios this
Speaker 3: morning saying Democrats enter panic mode as Gaza protests erupt.
Speaker 3: That as a tear from their headline. Several Democrats expressing
Speaker 3: in that article concerned that the protest and the fact
Speaker 3: that Biden has not been able to help get a
Speaker 3: ceasefire could hurt his chances in November. And I want
Speaker 3: to let you to listen to what Bernie Sanders told
Speaker 3: our Kris Hihan Ahmenport on this.
Speaker 4: Subject maybe of Biden's Vietnam Lyndon Johnson, in many respects
Speaker 4: was a very very good president domestically, brought forth some
Speaker 4: major pieces of legislation. He chose not to run in
Speaker 4: sixty eight because of opposition to his views on Vietnam.
Speaker 4: And I worry very much that President Biden is putting
Speaker 4: himself in a position where he is alienated not just
Speaker 4: young people, but a lot of the Democratic base.
Speaker 3: So you hear that argument there do you think the
Speaker 3: argument is an extreme example?
Speaker 2: What do you make of it?
Speaker 5: Well, thank you very much for having me. It's a
Speaker 5: good argument. You know. I never argue with history. I
Speaker 5: tell people all the time, history be our teacher. I
Speaker 5: was around doing Vietnam. I was around doing President Lyndon
Speaker 5: Johnson's Great socidy programs that brought on voting rights, the
Speaker 5: civil rights. Well he is vice president. We've got Civil
Speaker 5: Exact of sixty four. But he brought on the Medicare, medicaid,
Speaker 5: all those things that made us a great society. He
Speaker 5: was the engineer of and all that went down the
Speaker 5: drain because of Vietnam. And so these kinds of issues
Speaker 5: could very well be taken over as in this instance.
Speaker 5: We see that there are some outside forces, some that
Speaker 5: I feel well, not only up and up, that are
Speaker 5: involved in this. And so I share that concern that
Speaker 5: we've got to be very careful that we do not
Speaker 5: stymy protests. I am where I am today because of protests.
Speaker 5: We did it non violently. Our disciple of Martin Luther
Speaker 5: King Jr. Violent protests is not free speech, and that
Speaker 5: is what we've got to get everybody to understand. And
Speaker 5: Joe Biden protects free speech, but he also protects law.
Speaker 2: So Cliburn, they're trying to spend this right.
Speaker 1: This Axis article very clear Democrats inner panic mode as
Speaker 1: God's a protests erupt. You notice Cliburn there was just
Speaker 1: trying to like, you know, filibuster at the time as
Speaker 1: much as he could. He didn't know what else to say,
Speaker 1: which isn't surprising at all. This is what I would
Speaker 1: expect from him. Joe Biden on the protests. The best
Speaker 1: thing we've gotten out of him was at this speech
Speaker 1: that I played for yesterday where he said, you know,
Speaker 1: dissent must never lead to disorder, which is kind of
Speaker 1: a joke because they never called this out when it
Speaker 1: was Black Lives Matter, that we're burning down buildings.
Speaker 2: We'll deal with that in a second.
Speaker 1: They are in real trouble right now, and the polling
Speaker 1: number clearly shows this. Joe Biden has got the problem
Speaker 1: now with Israel. He's got the problem with the college
Speaker 1: campuses and losing the young vote. He's got the problem
Speaker 1: with RFK Junior. It's a bad day and it's about
Speaker 1: to get worse. Why do I say that. Here's a
Speaker 1: New Hill article that came out and this is what
Speaker 1: the title says, Biden's worst case economic scenario is unfolding
Speaker 1: at the worst possible time.
Speaker 2: Last Thursday, the.
Speaker 1: Bureau of Economic Analysis released its advanced estimates for twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four first quarter real GDP right gross domestic product growth.
Speaker 2: It was only one point six percent.
Speaker 1: It is the worst quarterly performance since the economy actually
Speaker 1: contracted by zero point six percent almost two years ago
Speaker 1: in the second quarter of twenty twenty two. This was
Speaker 1: a growth level that was in fact one third behind
Speaker 1: the economists prediction, their expectation.
Speaker 2: That it was going to grow at two point four percent.
Speaker 1: It is also a major drop from the twenty twenty
Speaker 1: three to fourth quarter rate that was at three point
Speaker 1: four percent and the twenty twenty three third quarter rate
Speaker 1: that they were all bragging about the White House with
Speaker 1: bidnomics of four point nine percent.
Speaker 2: What does this mean.
Speaker 1: It means that this is significantly slower growth and it's
Speaker 1: coming on the heels of also higher inflation. The March
Speaker 1: report on overall prices showed that the consumer price index
Speaker 1: for all urban consumers rose three point five percent over
Speaker 1: the last year three point eight percent when core inflation
Speaker 1: right minus food and energy was considered meaning it's costing
Speaker 1: you about four percent more now to live than it
Speaker 1: was a year ago. That figure was higher than any
Speaker 1: figure we've had since twenty twenty three September and marked
Speaker 1: the third marked that is three two one, and it
Speaker 1: marked this third consecutive monthly increase, meaning they do not
Speaker 1: have consumer prices or inflation under control at all at
Speaker 1: this White House.
Speaker 2: With quote Bidenomics. Now.
Speaker 1: The reason why I bring this up is because on
Speaker 1: top of this right news I just gave you Friday morning,
Speaker 1: more bad news came out about inflation, this time on
Speaker 1: the personal consumer expenditures all right, that is excluding food
Speaker 1: and energy. This is the Federal Reserve also preferred inflation
Speaker 1: gauge that they really look at.
Speaker 2: So you understand how important this is to the FED.
Speaker 1: Well, in March it rose two point eight percent compared
Speaker 1: to a year ago, the same as in February, and
Speaker 1: well above the Fed's expectations. So all of this is happening.
Speaker 1: It meaning that it's hurting the average American. It's actually
Speaker 1: hurting poor people more than anyone else. The reason why
Speaker 1: I bring that up is because while all of this
Speaker 1: bad news is coming, the White House has now announced
Speaker 1: because of a question they were asked that they were
Speaker 1: forced to answer that, yes, taxes are about to go
Speaker 1: up for many Americans. You may remember the Trump tax cuts.
Speaker 1: The White House is now saying that they are going
Speaker 1: to let that tax cut expire, meaning that it's going
Speaker 1: to raise taxes on the average American family. Listen to
Speaker 1: this at the White House briefing from Friday afternoon.
Speaker 3: The President says that he wants to let the tax cuts,
Speaker 3: the Trump task cuts aspire.
Speaker 6: If that long expires, it does raise taxes on almost
Speaker 6: every American. So does he still support that expiring without
Speaker 6: anything else in place?
Speaker 7: So look, as you said, the President is going to
Speaker 7: allow is going to let the Trump tax cut expire,
Speaker 7: and he was very clear, but he will not raise
Speaker 7: taxes on anyone making less than four hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 7: a year.
Speaker 1: That, well, that's a lie, because if you let the
Speaker 1: Trump tax cuts expire, you are absolutely raising taxes on
Speaker 1: those making less than four hundred thousand dollars a year.
Speaker 1: So this is a way of raising taxes without actually
Speaker 1: saying that you're proposing raising the taxes. You're just saying, well,
Speaker 1: I didn't like this Trump policy, these Trump tax cuts.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to let him expire. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to renew them. And the reason why is because he
Speaker 1: wants to take more your money. He really doesn't care
Speaker 1: about you. And the Democratic Party doesn't care about you either.
Speaker 1: They just don't care. And so that's why the White
Speaker 1: House gets away with saying it this way. They're like, well,
Speaker 1: we're not going to raise tax on you. If you're
Speaker 1: making every four hundred thousand, Yes you are, you absolutely are.
Speaker 1: You also have something else, and that is the average
Speaker 1: American now. And I go back the polls I mentioned earlier.
Speaker 1: The average American now true believes that this president is
Speaker 1: not looking out for them.
Speaker 2: And that is another major problem.
Speaker 1: When you look at the economy, you look at the markets,
Speaker 1: you look at what is happening. Go back to CNBC
Speaker 1: this morning, the April jobs report comes out, and this
Speaker 1: is what they said on CNBC about these numbers.
Speaker 2: Go to Rick Rick.
Speaker 8: We know that, you know, there's some people that just
Speaker 8: they just think that inflace that comes down after unemployment
Speaker 8: goes up. So we're not going to see inflace come
Speaker 8: down until we get an uptick in unemployment. So there
Speaker 8: are people that probably would like a little.
Speaker 2: Bit cooler number.
Speaker 8: But this is you only got ten seconds to respond.
Speaker 8: We might as well just wait now until we see
Speaker 8: what the number is.
Speaker 9: Right, Yeah, you know, I'm like Stephanie, I want to
Speaker 9: see people get jobs. So however that plays into the
Speaker 9: hand of the Fed.
Speaker 2: That's their concern.
Speaker 9: And April non farm payrolls expanded much less than expected
Speaker 9: one hundred and seventy five thousand. We're looking for a
Speaker 9: number much closer to two hundred and fifty thousand, and
Speaker 9: at least up to this point in the rear view
Speaker 9: mirror three hundred and three thousand, there are revisions minus
Speaker 9: twenty two thousand for a two month span. Now, if
Speaker 9: you look at manufacturing, it went from zero to eight thousand,
Speaker 9: so there is some improvement.
Speaker 2: And by the way, that three hundred.
Speaker 9: And three thousand last month went up three hundred and
Speaker 9: fifteen thousand, which means last month three hundred and fifteen
Speaker 9: thousand was the best since January of twenty three. Then
Speaker 9: we go to one hundred and seventy five thousand, which
Speaker 9: actually is the weakest since October October.
Speaker 2: Of last year.
Speaker 1: So they're even saying like, hey, this is really really
Speaker 1: bad and we all need to just admit how bad
Speaker 1: it actually is, Like this is.
Speaker 2: Really, really, really bad. And the President.
Speaker 1: I go back to that headline that I read for
Speaker 1: you a moment ago, and this headline from the Hill,
Speaker 1: Iden's worst case economic scenario is unfolding at the worst
Speaker 1: possible time, in the summer before an election. Now, can
Speaker 1: the President turn this around? I don't think so. I
Speaker 1: don't believe that he can turn this around. I don't
Speaker 1: think there's a magic wand that's going to somehow change this.
Speaker 1: Are we going to see interest rates go down the summer, No,
Speaker 1: not to a point that it's going to be meaningful.
Speaker 1: Are we going to see wages increases summer, No, not
Speaker 1: at a point that's going to be meaningful for voters.
Speaker 1: Are we going to have consumer confidence go up all
Speaker 1: of a sudden out of nowhere in September October.
Speaker 2: No before the election? I know, I don't see that scenario.
Speaker 1: And on top of all that, you're about to raise
Speaker 1: taxes on virtually every American taxpayer because you are going
Speaker 1: to let it expire, right like you're going to let
Speaker 1: the tax cuts from Donald Trump expire.
Speaker 2: Now, part of this could just be because.
Speaker 1: You don't want to have to admit that you extended
Speaker 1: the Bush the Trump tax cuts, right, like, that's part
Speaker 1: of it. And so you know that Donald Trump's going
Speaker 1: to stand on stage and be like, dude, you extended
Speaker 1: my tax cuts because you knew they worked, and that's
Speaker 1: what I did for Americans. But the other side of
Speaker 1: this coin may actually actually be worse, I would argue
Speaker 1: for him and you. And can you imagine being on
Speaker 1: stage with a bad economy, high inflation, high high unemployment
Speaker 1: numbers maybe going up, low job growth, and then have
Speaker 1: a president of the United States Americans like, dude, while
Speaker 1: all this is happening, look at what you just did, Like,
Speaker 1: what did you just do to Americans? You just raised
Speaker 1: their taxes because you couldn't stand me, and you couldn't
Speaker 1: stand that the tax cuts that I gave because you
Speaker 1: want to control people through taxes, You want to control
Speaker 1: people in their lives.
Speaker 2: And this is a real.
Speaker 1: Problem for us, right Like, this is a really really
Speaker 1: big problem for us. And if you're watching the President
Speaker 1: United States of America on stage having to respond to that,
Speaker 1: I cannot imagine it's gonna go well for you.
Speaker 2: And you can even hear it.
Speaker 1: In the voices of those at the NBC, Like, as
Speaker 1: they're telling this information, I think what they're what they're
Speaker 1: saying here is like, yeah, we know it's bad, Like
Speaker 1: we understand it. We know that things are not good.
Speaker 1: We understand that that. He can't flip this around either,
Speaker 1: like this is not saying that's going to that it's
Speaker 1: going to happen. Let me also remind you of what
Speaker 1: Donald Trump said about this.
Speaker 2: Take a listen.
Speaker 1: This was New York City from court when he was
Speaker 1: talking about inflation.
Speaker 6: Uh, the economy. People are asking me about the economy.
Speaker 6: It's doing terribly and interest rates are obviously not going
Speaker 6: to be able to be reduced prior to the election
Speaker 6: because inflation is roaring back.
Speaker 2: A gasoline's way up.
Speaker 6: Are the things are way up and it's roaring back,
Speaker 6: Like they are very surprised.
Speaker 2: I'm not surprised with this. I guess they're surprised. That's
Speaker 2: what they say. Anyway.
Speaker 6: So that's one of the economy looks pretty bleek for
Speaker 6: interest rates, and I don't think there's any way they
Speaker 6: can cut because inflation is very inflation.
Speaker 2: Remember, it is a country buster.
Speaker 6: When you have inflation that breaks countries, I mean literally
Speaker 6: breaks countries. And we can't take that chance. So we'll
Speaker 6: see what they do. But it was sort of announced
Speaker 6: Yester that they can't do much with the interest rates.
Speaker 6: I have to remain very high. And it's very unfortunate.
Speaker 6: We have low interest rates, they have high interest rates.
Speaker 6: That's very unfortunate when you compare my economy to this economy,
Speaker 6: not even to contest, were the greatest economy in history,
Speaker 6: and now we have sort of allows the economy. But
Speaker 6: the problem with the economy is the inflation. And anything
Speaker 6: you made you more than gave back. We call it
Speaker 6: a fifty percent tax. It's a fighten tax. It's called
Speaker 6: an inflationary tax, and it's about fifty percent. That's what
Speaker 6: it is, whether you like it or not.
Speaker 2: And it's too bad.
Speaker 1: I mean, Donald try, that's a winning message. And there's
Speaker 1: two things that I take away from this one. RFK
Speaker 1: Junior is hurting big time Joe Biden extra three things.
Speaker 1: That's number one. Number two, his nonstance on these radicals
Speaker 1: on campus is hurting him as well. And number three,
Speaker 1: the economy and the economic news is killing him as well.
