Dear Trump & Kudlow: This Is Not ‘A Golden Age.’ Your Delusions Fuel the Rise of the Democrat Socialists (DSA)
Yesterday – on Sunday, because the Internet never rests? I received in my inbox an op-ed from Larry Kudlow.
For those of you who don’t know…:
“Lawrence Alan Kudlow is an American conservative broadcast news analyst, economist, columnist, journalist, political commentator, and radio personality. He is a financial news commentator for Fox Business and served as the director of the National Economic Council during the Trump administration from 2018 to 2021.”
I’ve met Larry. He is a very nice guy.
That said: Kudlow is a standard-issue Washington, DC center-right economy guy. He is exactly the type of Republican economist – that is killing the Republican Party.
Kudlow’s economic messaging – is the Republicans’ economic messaging. And it is more tone deaf than a year’s worth of nationwide karaoke contests.

40% of All New US Debt Purchased Since 2022 Has Been in the Cayman Islands
The US government is $39+ trillion in debt. It is currently adding $1 trillion to its tally every five months. And through the magic of compound interest? The debt accumulation will only continue to accelerate.
Affordability! Affordability! Affordability!
Young Americans, middle-aged Americans, heck, virtually all Americans have a right to be angry. The policies implemented locally, statewide and nationally these last 50 years have combined to cause the “affordability” problem we are currently facing.
Affordability
Democrats have found the new Golden Goose for the elections. Affordability. If they win, I would not hold my breath for prices to drop.
In the USA, some Prices are Lower, but so are Expectations
At a time when prices for everything from eggs to gasoline are high, I thought it might be interesting to share a list of commodities and services that are actually much cheaper than they once were when compared to dollar values and wages in the past. Will this take the sting out of today’s sky-high …

I am reminded of 2016, when the government did everything it could to to persuade people that the economy was doing just fine, thank you very much, in their attempt to get Hillary Clinton elected:

Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics: Who Are You Going to Believe, Joe Biden, or Your Lying Eyes?
The official inflation rate has come down from its highs earlier in the Biden Administration, and the Democrats are arguing that inflation has been whipped.
Liars!
You can rest assured of one thing, if it’s coming out of Biden’s mouth, the White House, the reelection campaign or Biden supporters, it’s a lie.
