Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov
Trump Pretends He's Above the Law (feat. Leader Hakeem Jeffries)

We set in motion a process to doing it. And then of course, you know, lowering the cost of prescription drugs. We still need to do more, but we got that process started through the Inflation Reduction Act and the largest investment in combating the climate crisis in the history of the world. We didn't just talk about things, we actually did things.

But of course, I think the big challenge that we confronted is that notwithstanding all of those accomplishments, notwithstanding the way in which the economy from where it was to where it ended up in terms of lower unemployment, tens of millions of jobs created, actually wages beginning to go up. you know, the inflation reality hit everyday Americans hard.

And we were late to addressing that with the urgency, even if it was just rhetorically that we feel the pain that you are under and we're committed to doing something about it. And so that I think was a challenge. Trump sees that, but he over-promised and now he's under-delivering, of course, in fact, worse than that.

Yeah, I mean, unfortunately, you have some crooks, liars, and frauds who are in Washington, D.C., some of whom are serving in Congress, and Exhibit A is Marjorie Taylor Greene. And so in many ways, the fact that she engaged in this in such a blatant way, I think is going to give a boost to our efforts to ban stock trading by sitting members of Congress. It should not happen.

And we believe we have some bipartisan support for it. This is going to be an issue that will have to be driven by House Democrats. And it's not ideological. Progressives and New Dems and Blue Dogs, we're all in alignment that this needs to happen.

Yeah. I don't think Speaker... Pelosi has ever traded on insider information, and it's an open question as to whether Marjorie Taylor Greene had insight from the Trump administration as to the fact that he unleashed these tariffs on the American people and on the world. Market crashes, says he's not going to reverse himself.
