Recent stats show inflation is up to 3.7%, up from 3.0% last year. This is not a crisis, but it is annoying.
 
So, what’s driving this thing? It’s the Iranian war. When President Trump decided to confront Iran, along with Israel, I called it the biggest gamble of his life. And it has been. It hasn’t worked out yet, but it could.
 
Americans are getting punished. According to Moody’s, the average American household is spending $2,000 more than it did before the Iranian situation. That’s motivating votes in November.
 
It is an economic election.
 
My question to the American people: Is it worth $2,000 to see your country evaporate? To see socialism take over? That’s what you’re getting if you vote for the Democratic Party.
 
If I had to bet today, I'd say the Dems will take the House, and the GOP will keep the Senate.
 
It will be tight.
