Trump Joins Fox News at NYC Barbershop Hit Hard by Inflation
Breitbart ^ | 10/21/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 10/21/2024 11:01:15 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Monday on Fox & Friends, former President Donald Trump joined co-host Lawrence Jones for the latest installment of the Barbershop Talk series in the Bronx.

One man asked, “I don’t know what more to do, how can we make the economy come back?”

Trump said, “Here is what we’re doing. Number one it will begin with the oil. They screwed around what I did with oil. We were energy independent. You remember back four or five years ago $1.87 for a gallon of gas. We had it lower than that for your car. $1.87 now it’s at 3 1/2, but it was much higher. They brought back my policies to break even but by that time the damage was done. Now you have to inflation and the costs so high. They haven’t gone down. We are going to do two things, interest rates are going down, going to be brought down and brought down fast more importantly and quicker we’ll drill baby drill.”

Harris doesn’t know the meaning of ‘retail politics’. (We’ve heard that even her rallies are ‘by invitation’.

An elitist, she would be so far out of her element that her discomfort would be readily apparent. She would likely go straight to pandering mode, and try to apply what she thinks is the right dialect for the crowd.

Meanwhile Trump will be himself. Unapologetic, unfiltered, real. That audience will believe and trust him. Harris.. not so much.

Yes he does do well just talking with people. One man (co-owner or manager) said energy cost for shop went from $1200 to $15,000 I think!

Yes. The barber said that his electric bill went to 15k. Unfortunately for him, its the NY green policies that drove up his rates. There is a pinch on natural gas distribution, they shut down their nuke plant and the grid has to import expensive energy. Not much drill baby drill is going to do for that.

But, Harris does seem to be pretty good at REAL TALE (and maybe REAR TAIL) politics!

I’d rather not think about her apparent ‘avocations’.

THESE kinds of appearances resonate VERY WELL with the common person.

“Harris doesn’t know the meaning of ‘retail politics’. “

We all know how Harris got where she is. And it drives her absolutely mad that she can’t s and f powerful men to get her next promotion.

Cedric the Entertainer scene in Barbershop.
“I wouldn’t say this in front of any white folks.”
“Rosa Parks just sat her tired azz down in a bus. So what? I did that lots of times when I was tired.” “Rodney King shouldn’t have gotten himself drunk and drove and got into a fight.” “OJ did it.”

Alert. Some profanity in dialog.

yet, another Kopy Kat Kamala stunt...

Kamala in a Philly barbershop: “That’s where the truth gets spoken. That’s where the news gets shared — Uh huh! ... It’s not my first time ha ha ha!” 🥴
