and americans are starting to feel the benefits in their everyday lives. oh, yeah, right. and because the fed started raising rates too late and by too little, even nine straight hikes hasn t brought down inflation, but it did help cause the current banking crisis. well, they have that. a new poll out tonight by the associated press shows that only 10 percent of americans now have faith in our financial banking system. and look who can blame them. they see our economic growth is flatlining. the fed today predicted that this year our gdp will be a dismal point, four percent in next year. only one point two percent. both numbers are down from their earlier projections. so welcome biden s new economic normal, long lasting inflation ,a lower standard of living. so put that on a bumper sticker. i have to go to two stories.
is hurting recruitment. they re asking for 140 million dollars more for just programing for d.c.i. six figure salaries for d.c.i. consultants in the military. this stuff has no place. you know, we need a military that stands ready to defeat china to you know, it s you mentioned it. they are building islands in the south china sea. they re fully weaponizes. nobody in communist china is deterred by all is the training. we need a lethal fighting force and focused on that as opposed to the sort of world politics. the biden administration is bent on injecting. everyone. senator , i m going to go further. i think it s hurting recruitment. i think all of this kind of stuff is hurting recruitment. the vaccine mandates that hurt recruitment. but if it s not anything different than like a college campus in the way these issues are addressed, then a lot of people would say, you know, i could do that somewhere else, but it s not the military. i thought i was i was going to enter. but one of your d
desantis has to bone up on that as well. this the danger, of course, we face with an emboldened china under biden, blinken and a band of buffoons, america has lost leverage in the world. we only get it back when our economy is strong. again and we stop making china rich . trump gets this. he s very comfortable talking about this. desantis has to be even more convincing. this means his economic team has to be comprised of people who live and breathe these issues. no one from the swampy old gop guard should be given any prominent role. new blood, new ideas, bold thinking, finally. well, of course, desantis has had a very good story to tell in florida. the rest of the country needs to hear more than about what he it on covid or about how he s fighting liberal schools. he s going to need to convince voters that he can take the florida story and win nationally, that he won t be the guy on election night
is joe. that s the bottom line. exactly. well, john , i need i hope the president is watching because i m going to give a few campaign tips in my first angle. so i have campaign tips for him and for desantis. so fantastic. great show and awesome audience there by tomorrow. bye, guys. all right. i m laura ingraham and this is the ingraham angle from washington tonight. thanks so much for joining. as i said , tashaun, campaign advice. that s the focus of tonight s angle. so i thought i d play campaign manager just for tonight for both trump and sanders. and since most of my advice to them relates to the economy, we all need to be clear on how exactly biden tanked it. now, first, instead of encouraging all states to fully reopen their economies and to get all kids back into the classroom, biden kept the panic going by keeping fauci out front and then mandated covid shots for
federal workers. remember that health and federal contractors and who knows how many people lost their jobs? four shots they didn t need. and didn t want. and then, of course, there was his obscene spending after we d already spent four trillion uncovered relief. in the first year of the pandemic, president biden decided to spend more . he insisted on blowing almost two trillion dollars more on the deceptively named american rescue plan. well, of course, there s no such thing as free money. so all this did was send inflation higher. millions of workers were incentivized to stay at home rather than to go to work. that drag us down. now, it didn t take an economic brainiac to see what biden was creating. an inflation time bomb. and this is where the campaigns need to focus. but concerns by people like larry summers, they were dismissed. i see important transitory influences at work, and i don t anticipate it will be
