CEO Asks Stephanie Ruhle When She's Seen 4% Economic Growth? Obama
Stephanie Ruhle brings receipts to a CEO defending stock buybacks. Then he doesn't want to get "political."
Oh SNAP! As my colleague Aliza Worthington said about the Trumper apologist in this clip, "I don't know where he thought he was. I have a couple ideas about where he is now. Either the burn unit of the nearest hospital, or booking a gig on Fox News, where knowing one's sh*t is hardly a priority."
CEO of Stifel Financial Group Ronald Kruszewski gets stifled himself by Stephanie Ruhle when he wonders aloud, "When have you seen 4% growth before?"
"Five times under Obama," Stephanie Ruhle replies, unamused.
But hey, Ronald doesn't want to get political.
Okay Ronald let me throw a couple totally not political statements at you.
The Tax Cut for billionaires is going straight into stock buybacks and not raising wages.
And that 4% growth may be due to fears of a trade war from that person in the White House you don't want to mention because political, unless you can praise "his" economy.
Trust me, if there's a recession, it's gonna get really super political all of a sudden.
And don't think we didn't notice your gratitude at the end of this clip for education and safety without mentioning once that you're a White guy.
