Cathy Areu: I Don’t Understand Why Trump’s Threatening a Shut Down When Unemployment Looks Good

RUSH EXCERPT: 

REGAN: "The president putting the spotlight back on the Mueller probe instead of the economy and the jobs. Is that a mistake? Jointing me now, Ashley Pratt. Kathy are and Shelby holiday. You have a great economy to brag about right now, Shelby. You know the economist on earlier telling me he thinks this is going to be a stellar jobs number Friday and we could be heading to the lowest unemployment levels ever in this country. Gdp, 4.1%. Should the president stick to that instead of the other stuff?"

HOLLIDAY: "I think Republicans want him to stick to that. What we’re hearing is talk about more tariffs, an escalate of the trade war and possibly shutting down the government. They’re not usually seen as positives for the economy. I will give trump the benefit of the doubt. He is making head way in getting trade concessions. He’s talking about the trade balance lately. He does touch on the economy. He wants the media to cover it more often but creates distractions that are not related to the economy."
