Or, go to twitter and facebook. Com cspan to post your comments there. We will. Get your thoughts in just a minute lets begin with the president yesterday in florida making his pitch to voters they are on the economy. [video clip] you will have a crippling depression the likes of which you have never seen if sleepy joe becomes her president. Themour 401 k s, throw out the window because you know what is going to happen. Our stock market has a big headwind. If he wins, we are doing good. Did you see the number today . 33. 1 , the biggest in the history of our country by almost triple. [applause] it is bigger than any gdp we have ever had. You have to go back to the 1950s and it is less than half. This is the greatest. If you asked me two weeks ago, i would have taken 12 . Nobody ever heard of 12 . 33. 1 , and let me tell you what they are going to do. They wont even talk about it. This is the biggest event in business in 50 years. This is bigger than any nation. No nation has a number like that. Other nations right now we were compared to europe. Germany is doing so well, france is doing so well. They are not doing well. You take a look at what is going on and we want the best for them. We want to work with them and Everything Else, but they are not doing well. They are spiking big and shutting down and locking down. I disagree with that because we are never going to lockdown again. Andnderstood the disease, now, we are open for business. That is what it is. Host the president yesterday in florida. The former Vice President , joe biden, also traveled to florida yesterday. This is what he said would be his approach to the economy. [video clip] im not going to shut down the economy, the country, but i am going to shut down the virus. [applause] look, when barack and i left office, we left donald trump a strong economy, stronger than the one he handled. Just like Everything Else he inherited, he blew it. Is squandering that economy like you squandered Everything Else. We can build back and we can build back better with an economy that begins to reward work, not wealth. We can do without raising taxes on a Single Person making less than 400,000 a year. I promise you that. If you make 400,000 and above, you are going to start paying your fair share. All we aregentlemen, going to ask is the wealthiest among us and wealthiest corporations to begin to pay their fair share. 91 of the fortune 500 Companies Pay zero in taxes after making billions of dollars. They have to pay a minimum tax. Look, why should a firefighter, and educator, why should a nurse pay a higher tax rate than a super wealthy . Why should you pay more taxes than donald trump pays . [applause] t with these candidates which of these two candidates do you trust on the economy . That is our question for you this morning. Hillg at t the newspaper. The former Vice President builds a bigger lead nationally. The economy remains the president s best issue. 52 approving of his handling of the economy overall. Trump leads biden, although 50 of voters say the economy is on the wrong track. We turn to you this morning. Howard in indiana, supporting the bidenharris ticket. Caller i definitely support the biden ticket. I couldnt support trump for anything. He lies so much and he is taking credit for inheriting an expanding economy created by obama and biden. When theember that administration of obama and biden had come to power in 2008, we were crashing towards a depression. They rescued this economy, brought it back. In eight years from that point, developed an expanding economy, which trump has inherited and has now ruined. Leader who has tolly done very little improve on our growing economy. I think it would be helpful for your audience if you could show data where people have facts showing the job creations during the last three years of Obamas Administration in the job creation during the first three years of trumps administration. They can see there were more jobs, over one million more jobs created in that same comparable period under obama than under trump. People are just believing this gentleman trump, he is not a gentleman. Data should dictate otherwise. I think you guys are journalists, in some degree, so you should provide context to people so they can understand comparisons. They can see that the facts did not support what trump is saying. Is some market euphoria on the stock market, which we all enjoy. Fact. Is no credence in host how do you respond to the president . You just heard him in florida saying, look at that gdp number. 33 . Caller ok. Let him get away with these kinds of things. That job was due to how many trillions of stimulus that were formulated by a Democratic Congress to stimulate the economy together with the. Ederal reserve that, not a lot of any great leadership from donald trump. He does the and the press lets him get away with that and there needs to be context. Muchalists must do a better job of comparing facts of what trump is saying and not putting him on the same plane as what he is trying to compare himself to. Host let me jump in and show our viewers what nancy pelosi had to say. She is making the argument you had to say, although she is pointing to the money passed in congress. [video clip] an annualnomy grew at rate of 33. 1 in the Third Quarter. Does President Trump deserve any credit for that . The cares act deserves credit for that. We had lost ground in the Second Quarter that fairly makes up for that. Credites act deserves for injecting the resources into the economy, in the subsequent cares and ppp. It is like someone using an example this morning of if you lost 100 in the Second Quarter, and now, you are making up 65, glory, hallelujah. No. If we dont pass a recovery covid19 bill, we will face dire circumstances as well. And administration worked together in a bipartisan way to pass the cares act as well as subsequent legislation to inject resources into the economy. The lack of doing that this time is going to take us back down to another path. Host the speaker yesterday on the hill. Sherry in iowa supporting the trumppentz ticket. Good morning to you. Trust him . Not look what all he has done. For goodness sakes. I dont believe a single where the democrats say. They have been after trumps and stay one. Since day one. All they want to do is get him out. I think those polls are outliers. There is no way biden is ahead. Cant be. No way. Just lie, lie. Thank you. Host farmingdale, new york. Paul, why do you trust joe biden the economy . Caller thank you for taking my call. I just want the American People to know that i trust biden in the democrats because i will tell you why. I want the American People to know im going to talk fast. People side with republicans and gop. Im still but registered republican. I was with the sheriff department. Gops, i hadl the a business meeting with ivanka trump and donald trump years ago. I had a republican role. Everyone said democrats should use me on campaign. Donald trump just uses them to get the votes and recognition. He says what he says because he knows what they want to hear as most are racist. Trump is selfish and absorbed. He told chauvinist jokes, admitted he hates minorities and women in charge. Suburban women do not fall for his bs. He is a hypocrite and liar like most republicans are. He is hateful and i wish people would wake up. Ivanka had a man ready to attack me if i touched her shoulder. The Republican Party paid host paul, im going to leave it there. Asked for datar for job comparisons between President Trump and the last of ministration. You can find if you go to thebalance. Com. It actually goes through several of the president s. They point to bill clinton who created the greatest total number of jobs during his two terms at 8. 7 million. Im going to scroll down and show you what they have to say about president obamas numbers. He created 8. 9 million jobs by the end of december 2016, a 6. 2 increase during his two terms. If you take a look at President Trumps first three years. He created 6. 6 million jobs in his first three years. That is a 4. 4 increase. A look and compare yourself if you go to thebalance. Com. Mark and Staten Island, new york, supporting President Trump. Caller good morning. First of all, i just want to who said last caller republicans should open up their eyes. What about the democrats .

All of the times he has been in pennsylvania and they are not wearing masks, while it is doing is making it rise here. I have health issues, my wife does, too. This is a sign that they just say wear our mask and he does not care about the people. Host randy and louisiana supporting the president. Good morning. What do like about the trump administrations economic policies . Ell, he is a lesser of two evils, but it seems he has held to his promises over the years. To throw just tried him under the bus right and left. We have been had by the democrats and republicans probably since they murdered lincoln. Surprised that the American People are not more behind him. Biden, this guy is just a croak, but they are all crooks. He would be the lesser of two evils like we have been voting for all our life. I dont trust the republicans or the democrats. I am pretty much an independent, but he seems to bring home jobs and keeps people in line, like china and the middle east. I cant see voting for by the not all. The guy has thrown the black people under the bus and everybody else he can think of in his whole family. The bushs they are just as big of crooks as the clintons and obamas. They have all played off each other all these years. The people have been had and the people need to wake up. I dont know who is going to take trumps place when he is gone. Unless he to be loses, then we are in a heap of trouble. Host randy supporting the president. Fox news is reporting on Glenn Greenwalds decision to quit the intercept, the website he founded in 2013. He claims the editors censored his story critical of joe biden and his son, hunter biden. Near y outlines the the new york posts decision to post the emails as well as other publications, newspapers cisions notions de to go with that story. The story goes on to be critical with the Joe Biden Campaign about not responding to questions about hunter biden and this alleged deal. You can find the statement and also the story he says was censored if you go to a website, greenwald. Substack. Com. You can find the entire story there. He said he presented nine questions he thought the Biden Campaign should answer. They said they would give him answers and they have not. Lla supporting bidenharris. Good morning to you. You have got to turn down the television. Talk and listen through your from phone. Let me move on. Mike. You are undecided . Caller yes. It is hard to pick because they have been giving us this koolaid for how many years . In 1981, i was making 22 an hour working for sears driving a truck delivering washers and dryers. We are making the same amount of money 40 years later. Making anyone survive on the same amount of money they were making 40 years ago . My house i bought 16 years ago is worth the same amount of money 16 years later. That believes these guys are going to make our lives better are out of their minds. It is terrible. Host how do you get your health care . Caller i am on medicaid. Tumor. Up with a brain i went blind. I have got to tell you, if i did not have Social Security, which they want to get rid of, we would all be doomed. Host you are not working anymore . Caller no. I went blind. Host are you getting Social Security disability . Caller right. You get Social Security disability. If you didnt have that as a backstop, this whole country would be third world. Host mike, which way are you leaning . Caller i dont believe any of them. Undecided. That is what i called in on because nobody is telling us the truth. We have been sold this koolaid for years. I drove a truck in 1981 host we heard you, but what are you going to do . Are you not going to vote . Caller i have already voted, i did the mail and. Mail in. I handed it to the post man, but god only knows if the guy actually delivered it. Host so you did vote. Do you mind telling us we voted for . Caller oh. Im definitely biden because he is a democrat and for Social Security. Host let me go on to david in kentucky, also supporting bidenharris. Caller hi. I think the biggest thing trump has done is divided the people. We have got people here locally that almost hate one another because of the stand they take. I think it is crazy. Before the pandemic even hit, the deficit was going through the roof. He was spending money. He is not conservative. Spending money like crazy. Also, his morals. He is unfit to be president. Son of president reagan the other day say he had zero qualifications. I believe it. You look at his history. You go back, all the tapes and stuff. Host let me ask you, where does the economy rate for you . Caller it is really high. Host is it higher than character and other things you are describing . Caller we need somebody in there that has some character. Joe biden has a lot more character than donald trump. I cant see why anybody would vote for him. I just cant see how anybody could vote for a man they have got him on tape grabbing womens privates and that is ok. And not only that, he was trying to have sex with a woman, a married woman walking around. It is crazy. Host lets take a look at how framingonal papers are the Economic News that was announced yesterday, the numbers that the president was talking about in florida. This is the washington times. Economic growth drives the trump message. Biden promises an end to the pandemic. Frontashington times page, the u. S. Economy gets a strong balance. Times, the new york excuse me. The economy in the Third Quarter was 3. 5 smaller than at the end of 2019 before the pandemic. Gdp shrank 4 by the entire year and a half of the Great Recession a decade ago. Apologies for that. Frontall street journal page. U. S. Growth erases much of slide. The u. S. Economy grew at a record pace in the Third Quarter, increasing 7. 4 over recoveringuarter, about two thirds of the ground it lost earlier in the coronavirus pandemic. The washington post. Up u. S. Gains prop economy. It has recovered two thirds of the ground it lost after the coronavirus pandemic closed businesses and travel. The uneven nature of the , rising fears that the strong growth could be shortlived. Which candidate do you trust on the economy . Bob in philadelphia supporting trumphence pence. Caller good morning. I would like to thank you for going over the greenwald issue. Im glad to see that at least one journalist in the Mainstream Media broke ranks. It cost him his job, but im very glad to see that. I would hope that more do the same. It is doubtful, but aside from that, the gdp numbers were fabulous. If this was any democrat president , the Mainstream Media would be ballyhoo wing ballyhooing, bragging about a 33 jump in the gdp. If these people take over, make no doubt about it i live in philadelphia. They will have a europeanstyle clamp down. You can see the writing in europe rioting in europe because of this. People do not want lockdowns. Joe biden and the rest of these knuckleheads, like the city who run the city of philadelphia, will lock it down. Make no mistake about it. They are more phony than the hair plugs in joe bidens head. It is just absolutely disgusting. Host bob, you and others might
