Larry Kudlow on Mar-a-Lago Raid: “It Is Not About Presidential Documents” It’s About Keeping President Trump and His Freedom-Loving Policies Off the Ballot in 2024

Larry Kudlow, President Trump’s Director of the National Economic Council, had much to say earlier this week about the economy and why the Biden gang raided Mar-a-Lago.  

Kudlow believes that the Biden gang’s raid on Mar-a-Lago is all about the Biden Administration trying to keep President Trump and his America-winning policies off the 2024 ticket.

Kudlow explains:

Judge Bruce Reinhart today admitted the FBI’s raid on President Trump’s Mar-a-lago home was “unprecedented.” He rejected Merrick Garland’s attempt to keep the search warrant affidavit completely secret and under seal.

He cited the intense public and historical interest and he ordered the DOJ to propose redactions by this Thursday, but again, rejected DOJ attempts at total secrecy. Now, I’m not a lawyer and we will be talking to former Florida AG Pam Bondi in just a few moments, but I am especially interested to see if the Biden Administration’s legal logic in this outrageous Trump raid has anything remotely to do with January 6.

Personally, I continue to believe that this is not about presidential documents, but it is about desperate attempts by the Biden Administration to keep Donald Trump off the ballot in 2024. 

A bunch of smart folks I know think this outrageous invasion virtually guarantees that the former president now will run for president in 2024, but I want to step back for a moment and look at an even bigger picture.

It’s not only Biden’s attempt to keep the former president off the ballot in ’24. It is also a transparent effort by Biden to keep Trump’s highly successful policies off the ballot in ’24.

From Day 1, President Biden has reversed every successful Trump policy—large tax cuts and major deregulation that gave us the most prosperous economy in many generations, including historic low unemployment for Blacks, Hispanics, Asians and women—the biggest after tax, after inflation, wage increase for blue collar working folks all the way down to lower incomes.

In fact, under Trumpenomics, it was the lowest census quintiles that benefitted the most with the biggest pay hikes; significantly bigger tax savings than the top 1%. Tax avoidance fell sharply. Offshore money returned home to the U.S…

…In a free economy, with free people, with freedom under the constitution, we truly get life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is literally these freedoms that President Biden and his crowd are trying to keep off the ballot this November and in November ’24. That is why the cavalry is coming. Americans love freedom and that’s my riff.

Here is Kudlow’s opening:

Americans were prosperous and making money during President Trump’s Administration.  The economy was on fire.  The GDP was at all-time highs, and the stock markets were as well.  Unemployment was at record lows and American wages were growing.  Inflation was near 1% and America was an energy-independent country.

But now inflation is at record highs.  Americans are struggling to pay their electric bills.  The economy is coming to a halt.  Experts are talking about depression rather than the Biden recession.

Americans want freedom and policies that ensure that freedom.  Biden and his gang don’t want this.  They want power and for Americans to know that they are in charge.

BIDEN ECONOMY: 20 Million Americans Behind on Electric Bills – Facing Electricity Being Shut Off

The Biden economy is no laughing matter.  Millions of Americans are now finding it hard to eat, get work and pay their electric bills. 

A review of the Consumer Price Index data shows that the price of energy is rocketing upwards and many Americans are having a hard time paying their electric bills. Sundance at the Conservative Treehouse shared his own electric bill experience when discussing this data.

Long-term CTH readers might remember in 2014 when President Obama claimed U.S. families had been paying too little for electricity for too long.  As soon as Joe Biden took office, he began implementing the Green New Deal energy policy that, (a) directly forces higher costs for energy; and (b) is now creating massive problems.

In July I noted my own electricity bill had jumped 28% in a single month.  That bill was followed by another almost identical increase this month.  A review of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for July [Data Here] shows that nationally the same thing is happening.  The year-over-year electricity price has increased 15.2%. However, worse still, the July increase alone was 1.9%, which figures to an annualized rate of 22.8%.

Steve Cortes shared a Bloomberg report that 20 million American households are now behind on their electric bills.

Utility Delinquencies – as reported by Bloomberg News, in a rare moment of honesty for a legacy media platform, an astounding 20 million American households are currently behind in paying their Utility bills. 1 in 6 households, in this land of abundance, cannot afford the simplest, most basic necessity of paying for power in their homes.

The article predicts “a tsunami of shutoffs” as the pandemic moratorium on disconnections of service expires across the country.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre boasts that the America is “economically stronger” than ever, so why can’t these citizens afford power? Well, the answer largely lies in the explosion in electricity prices under Biden. Amidst of a sea of soaring overall inflation, this particular price surge crushes working-class people. July saw a 15% annualized increase in electricity rates, the highest acceleration since 2006. See this chart on electricity costs under Trump vs. Biden.

Cortes was on Steve Bannon’s War Room and he discussed the crisis for 1 in 6 Americans. Americans can’t pay their electric bills and food.  This is really getting bad.

The Biden recession is very close to a depression.  More stupid policy initiatives and that’s where America will be.  It’s as if this is what the crime families running the country want.
