And economic growth is also going the wrong way.
You can see under Biden, it was two point, it averaged two point four percent in his last year and it was steady upward.
Under Trump, it's bounced around, but it's going to average only two percent this year.
And even even the two percent that by that Trump is going to get is heavily driven by all this spending on data centers that you've been reading about and talking about, which obviously have nothing to do with him.
And so the economy is, in fact, slowing, not growing faster and a downward trend.
The fourth quarter could be down here in the one to one and a half percent range.
And then you also hear when you talk about affordability, about housing.
And so housing starts, which is what we need.
We need more housing, obviously, for people to be able to afford them, have dropped.
And you can see what they did under Biden.
And you can see down here under Trump, they are lower.
And so we're building fewer houses.
So Vance can talk all he wants about inheriting a bad economy.
But what you have to be able to do is then make the economy go the right way, even from wherever, whatever you get, rather than going the wrong way.
And right now it is it is going the wrong way and especially on jobs and affordability.
All right.

Exactly.
And so, again, they talk about inflation and they talk about and he said it in that clip about he inherited the worst inflation in 50 years and all that kind of stuff.
