more attention to key issues affecting their families.famili inflation, crime, an like inflation and crime in the border crisis. the biden s only interested inac appeasing his far left basea fou with the focus on abortion, , an student debt, bailout and his promise to save democractoy fin as delusional as ever. new and he has a new attack linef t that just rolls right off pol the tongue. pulls been all overbeen a wee the place. i think that we re going to seee one more shift s back to our mee you wh and let me tely i thl you why ik that we re starting to see some of the good news on the economy. the election is not it s a choice. it s a choice. and the republicans criticize economic record .k what but look at what i ve inherited and what i ve done and look at what they re offering. it is a, mega trickle down, mega mega trickle down.own, that have b failed the country beforefe and i ll fail it again, knowa he and while biden tests out a last ditch effort to sway at ditcvote
His education policies and he decided to go back at them. will be to him here. this is talking about article 2 of the constitution which outlines presidential power, power to negotiate treaties. past president, including implying donald trump, too timid. you also have to be willing to assert the true scope of article 2 powers. a lot of our presidents have not been willing to do that. for example, the administrative state, the founding fathers would have never accepted the idea that you could get elected president and yet the executive agencies could do whatever they wanted to do. that s not the way this works. again, it is a republican vote is first, but other voters will watch as this it process plays out. this is a governor now, would-be president, who has an aggressive idea about the use of executive power to get what he thes. that s interesting because trump also had a very aggressive idea of use ing executive powero
Green left and elon muskft, el is very interesting to me. elon musk ownsis six . has tesla has 68% of the market share of electri c vehicles inamerica. america. they are doing what joe bide nansiti claims he wants to do, trancedo. big transition to electric but becaus vehicles.s he has led the way. d but because he doesn t do the exactly what the white house wants, his workers are not unionized. the white hous e is frozen out of any kind of celebrations. d a bicelebratg electric vehicle event at the white house. they did not invite elon musk,hi even though he s dominating in the electric vehicle market. so he s just too unwieldy forr them. it s like they they maybe like bu his green agenda, butt ide they don t like the idea that he s outspoken , that he wants to own one of the major communications outlets with fre ofspeech in this country. gn this and so they re using the powero of government like they always do to go after people they dee do to go after people they deem a threat polit
