Hassett says the media can pretend everything is great, but Americans felt the damage every single month:
Hassett: The President Trump got it exactly right. I thought his speech last night was fantastic. And he really, really enjoyed having the charts again, I can tell you that, that’s some feedback we got from yesterday, because the bottom line is that the Democrats are out there saying things that are false. And, like, they’re not holding up charts telling you what’s going on. But you know, we have a chart that showed that the typical family buying a new home, saw their mortgage rate go up at an annual rate by $14,000 because of Biden’s inflation and the high interest rates that followed from it.
And so people who have to pay $14,000 a year more just to have their home, of course, they were harmed a lot by Biden, but already because we’ve been getting closer to a balanced budget and leading interest rates down even before we control the Fed more, that we’ve saved a couple thousand dollars of that 14,000 already. So we’re making great progress.
We’ve made huge progress in the last term. And right now, all of the indicators are that the 3% growth that we gave you last time is a really, really low ball estimate of what we’re going to be able to deliver. Because we’ve got the AI boom making productivity go through the roof, we’ve got 18 trillion in new factories being built, we’re actually tracking the groundbreakings—we’re up through about 30 of them since September. And so, the economy is booming, jobs are growing, and but people were absolutely harmed. And so again, the President went through every single price of everything in the charts and he did a lot of it last night. You know, the bottom line is that if you were just a typical family, your month’s groceries cost $400 when President Trump left office, and it cost almost $550 when Joe Biden left office. So that extra $150 a month, after paying also $14,000 more a year for your mortgage, it really adds up to a lot of stuff that has to be fixed.
Interviewer: I’ve quoted you many…
Not all heroes wear capes — some arrive on four paws, with eyes full of determination and a heart brimming with courage.
But what sparked this dog’s sudden dive into the wild ocean waves that day? Was it pure instinct, or something deeper — a mysterious sense of danger that only animals can perceive?
At a bustling beach filled with laughter and sunshine, a young girl wandered a little too far into the restless sea.
Her loyal dog, waiting on the shore, suddenly fixed its gaze on the churning water with an intensity that caught everyone’s attention. Without hesitation, the dog leapt into the crashing waves, cutting through the surf with purpose.
Witnesses watched in stunned silence as the dog swam directly to the girl, carefully grasping the fabric of her shirt in its mouth. With steady strokes and unwavering resolve, the dog guided her back through the swirling tide, inch by inch, until they both reached the safety of the sand.
The crowd erupted in cheers, relief washing over them as the girl looked up at her faithful companion with wide eyes of gratitude. Her parents, overcome with emotion, embraced their brave pet, showering it with praise and affection.
Conclusion
This incredible rescue is a testament to the powerful bond between humans and their dogs—a connection woven from loyalty, trust, and instinct.
In a moment when every second counted, a dog’s quick thinking and fearless heart made the difference between danger and safety.
It reminds us all that sometimes, the most extraordinary heroes come not with capes, but with wagging tails and unwavering devotion.
