Sen. John Kennedy on Affordability: Here’s My Prediction on the Elections, I’ll Bet You a Soda, ‘That the Experts Are Wrong’

RUSH EXCERPT:
KENNEDY: "As I’ve said before, kristen, here’s my prediction about the elections. I will bet you a soda and a nice hat that the experts are wrong. I will think — I do think it will be close. I think the biggest issue is cost of living. I think we have to tell the American people the truth. We — telling them not to believe their own lying checkbooks is not going to work. The inflation — this inflation did not originate in a bat. It started under President Biden. It’s reared its ugly head under President Trump because of the war in Iran. Once we settle the war in Iran the prices will come down, but it’s more than just cost of living. The American people, both sides, feel anger. If they don’t feel anger, they feel deep melancholy. They feel like the Washington political leaders have let them down. They don’t listen. They don’t care. They feel that way about Congress in particular. They think the United States’ Congress is the best evidence of why it took our ancestors thousands of years to learn how to stand upright. Some of that is our fault, we should have done more, but we’ve done a lot, and I’ve been out on the campaign trail talking about it, but I want to tell the American people the truth."
