Rubio couldn’t get off the stage fast enough tonight. When are they going to stop him? Their cowardice in a time of their country’s need will be long remembered.

Biden was actually good for the stock market. Rates were heading lower. Inflation was coming down. The 10-year was at 3.96%. Gas was in the 3’s. If Trump had just fixed the border, which most Americans wanted, and left everything else alone, we’d probably be doing a lot better right now. Instead we got tariff which have been an unmitigated disaster. Yes, the stock market is doing okay, but it could be doing so much better. And here’s the thing: we personalize economics onto presidents when it’s mostly situational. Bush Sr. got blamed for a recession from the Gulf War. Clinton got credit for a recovery that was probably just cyclical. This time though is self-inflicted. The president has inflicted self-harm on the economy.
