Dr. Navarro: Kamala’s "Price-Gauging” Gaffe Exposed
Peter Navarro criticizes Kamala Harris’s handling of economic issues, especially in light of her comments on price gouging, which she mistakenly refers to as “price gauging.” Navarro mocks her lack of economic knowledge and blames her for exacerbating inflation through her support of large spending bills like the 2021 $1.9 trillion package and the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act. Navarro argues that Harris is responsible for rising prices and other economic problems, stating, “You broke it, you bought it,” referring to her role in supporting policies that contributed to inflation. He also notes her tie-breaking votes in the Senate and points out that she must now fix the problems she helped create, such as the border crisis, energy issues, and crime. Navarro paints Harris as ill-equipped to handle economic matters, emphasizing her vulnerability in the upcoming election.
"You Break It, You Buy It”: Dr. Navarro Calls Out Kamala For Running From Her Crises
Peter Navarro’s comments are a scathing critique of Vice President Kamala Harris’s handling of various crises, from inflation to border security. He draws a parallel between the post-World War I German inflation, where citizens used wheelbarrows full of money to buy bread, and Harris’s economic policies, which he believes have led to severe inflation in the U.S. Navarro highlights the irony of Harris trying to distance herself from the very issues she helped create, dubbing her responsible for inflation due to her tie-breaking Senate votes on massive spending bills. He also criticizes her for mishandling border security, supporting defunding the police, and contributing to higher energy costs. Navarro argues that Harris’s policies have broken the economy, the border, and public safety, and sarcastically suggests she believes voters are too distracted to hold her accountable. His central message: “You broke it, you bought it, Kamala.”
Kevin Hassett: The Responsibility Of The Fed And Financial Failures Of The Biden Campaign
Peter Navarro and Kevin Hassett discussed the influence of Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders on current Democratic policies. Hassett pointed out that Joe Biden initially campaigned as a moderate but shifted significantly to the left after winning the nomination, allowing figures like Warren and Sanders to shape his administration. This leftward shift is now evident in Vice President Kamala Harris’s policies, which seem to embrace more extreme left ideas without the pretense of moderation.
Hassett noted that Harris’s proposals, such as setting government prices, echo Warren’s policies and could alienate moderate Democrats and swing-state voters. This could impact Democratic candidates in traditionally red or purple states, potentially affecting their willingness to attend the party convention if it heavily features leftist ideas.
The conversation also touched on Trump’s potential strategies for economic recovery, emphasizing a return to pre-Biden policies that fostered prosperity and reduced inflation. Hassett stressed the importance of cutting excessive spending to restore fiscal stability and boost investment.
Additionally, the discussion addressed the impact of current Democratic policies on the auto industry, particularly how the push for electric vehicles might drive manufacturing away from traditional union strongholds like Michigan to non-union states such as Tennessee. This shift could undermine the United Auto Workers and affect local economies reliant on traditional automotive jobs.
Overall, the segment highlighted the potential political and economic consequences of the current administration’s policies and suggested a significant realignment of the auto industry due to these policies.
