but when we larry kudlow and i first started talking to trump this and i know, arthur, you had talked to him many times, the taxes we came in and we had a chart available for him. trump likes to look at pictures. you know, we had a we had a chart showing, you know, we had the highest business tax rate in the world and we were way, way above the rest of the world. we were at 40%. in the rest of world was at about 20%. and we showed this chart to trump love the center and and larry said and that's why we think your plan should be to cut the corporate tax rate to 20% and trump sits back in his seat and he shakes his head. so now i'm not going to do that. and we're going to publicly say i want 15%. i want 15%. now, the reason story i think is interesting, just a historical matter is for the next year, in two months until we actually got that bill passed, every speech that trump gave, every time talked to members of congress, every time, talked to the senate and house, you can probably. those 15%, he'd say to mitch mcconnell don't even come back me with a bill unless it has that 50% tax ra

it is absolutely false, i will quote my good friend larry kudlow here, the economy was in freefall when before biden came into office about the economy grew by 10.7% so the economy was on a huge upswing when biden came into office and don't forget week after the election was when they announced the vaccine thanks to operation warp speed which is what unlocks the doors of opening up businesses again. i wrote a piece in the new york post monday addicting they would be lies in the biden speech and i think i got five out of the six, i may have missed one but you know, you look at that list and he says he's -- let's take the gas prices. the gas prices 2.59 a gallon when biden took office. it skyrocketed, remember talking about 5-dollar a gallon gasoline and it's come down 3.50 but if my math is right, isn't that still a dollar more a gallon? let me give you another one that sticks, he keeps talking about how he's reduced the deficit by 1.4 trillion, he said that again last night. i want to make sure the viewers understand this. when biden came into office, the first thing he did was raise th
