What is the current state of the affordability crisis in America?
Tarvitsisin auton heti käyttöön. Retkeilykäyttöön, mökkikäyttöön, perhekäyttöön tai oikeastaan laskettelureissukäyttöön. Käyttöautosta tuhansia autoja joka käyttöön jo 55 vuoden ajan. Myös kotiin toimitettuna. Käyttöauto. Arkeen ja unelmiin. Jääkiekon nuorten MM-kisat. 26. joulukuuta alkaen TV5 ja HB omaksilla. Fortum presents Olavi Vaari playing his favorite instrument. Hmm, beautiful. But let's add a little energy.
Oh, the MAGA Republicans are losing control and they are collapsing right before our eyes on various live TV appearances, whether it's speaker or speaker.
MAGA Mike Johnson saying that what's really just confusing the American people is that the MAGA Republicans have so many great messages on affordability. They just got to be a little more focused. That's what they're going with. They're too good on affordability. Really? That's what you think? Here, play this clip. president trump's going to pennsylvania tuesday i believe to talk about his economic agenda ahead of the midterms do the republicans have a messaging problem with affordability uh no it's just that we've had so many things to message i mean it's a blessing and a curse the big beautiful bill was aptly named because there was so much in it so much policy and there were so many things to message all at once so you had different republicans out talking about different things which they need to do in their districts but it made it appear as though the message wasn't unified
We are laser focused on affordability, bringing down the cost of living. Then you've got MAGA Republican Congress member Hardopoulos. And this guy's like, of course we're winning this issue. Why do you think Republicans keep on winning? Uh, you're not?
Okay. this clip you know the democrats in california went to the extreme uh we're just trying to keep up with them at this point but that said i'm glad to see the texas maps are finally in place i think that will give an opportunity for us to keep the house but we're going to keep the house in my opinion because we are the ones addressing the issue of affordability the democrats their answer for affordability is higher taxes and going back to the biden era policies which completely fail this and so i'm a lot more optimistic about next year than most Again, we won in Tennessee by a decent margin, but we're going to do much better next fall because people are going to feel the tax cuts that we passed back in July.
And you've got MAGA Republican Congress member Jason Smith on CNBC, where the MAGA host Joe Kiernan, he's like, all right, you guys have like a health care plan. I'm trying to help you here. Do you have a health care plan? And watch what MAGA Republican Congress member Jason Smith says. Play this clip. There's things that was Mike Johnson. Is he saying that they have a plan?
The speaker? Yesterday, he said that we're working on a plan. Okay. I'm wondering, Andrew, what do you think, Andrew? You got any? You're doing great. Really? Yeah. I'm trying to be... Down the middle, I see. Trying to blame both sides. But it is blameable on both sides. Well, okay. He's not going to really say anything. He's just going to say what he said. Is that what you're saying? You're looking at me saying what he said? Exactly. Exactly. We got to go, Mr. Chairman. We hope you come back.
Yes, concepts of a plan, folks, concepts of a plan. And then Donald Trump goes in front of the Christmas tree lighting at the White House. He's like, we've done it. Everyone's thriving. Inflation has vanished. Americans are doing great. Stop saying affordability. Play the clip.
Into our country. Nobody, not one. Our economy is thriving. Inflation has stopped. Our nation is strong.
How are GOP leaders addressing the affordability issue?
And America is back bigger and better, stronger, better than ever before. Think of it. And we're making peace all over the world. We're settling wars at levels that nobody's ever seen before. Eight of them. We're looking for one more. That's Russia, Ukraine, if that's possible. And I think we'll get there eventually.
Next up, you have Donald Trump's National Economic Advisor, Kevin Hassett.
