CNN’s John Berman Throws Down With House Republican Over Claims On Trump’s Economy: ‘I Asked You a Question About Facts’
==========
CNN anchor John Berman confronted Republican House Whip Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) on September 30, 2024, regarding the state of the U.S. economy during a segment about Emmer's preparation of Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) for an upcoming vice presidential debate. Berman highlighted unfavorable poll numbers for Vance, stating he was '12 points underwater' according to CNN and Reuters. Emmer deflected by criticizing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D), claiming he was unpopular despite winning two statewide elections. Berman countered with facts about Walz's victories and pressed Emmer on Vance's economic claims, referencing economist Mark Zandi's positive assessment of the current economy. Emmer insisted that inflation was a significant issue for constituents, claiming it cost them $1,200 more monthly compared to four years ago. Berman challenged Emmer's assertions, emphasizing the importance of factual accuracy in political discourse.

==========
CNN political commentator Scott Jennings criticized Vice President Kamala Harris's economic plan, stating that it would lead to bread lines, product shortages, black markets, and hoarding, comparing it to the economic conditions of The Walking Dead. Jennings argued that there is no price gouging, only inflation, and accused Harris of trying to deflect attention from the actual inflation that has caused rising prices. He also pointed out that Harris and President Joe Biden are in charge and have directly contributed to the current economic conditions. The comments were made during a discussion on CNN's OutFront with Democratic strategist Aisha Mills. The Washington Post also published an objection to Harris's plans for setting food prices at the federal level.

==========
Renowned political scientist Ian Bremmer warns that the deteriorating perception of the U.S. abroad is an international crisis. Bremmer states that the United States no longer has a political system that any country around the world admires, which is a deep concern for leaders globally.

CNN anchor John Berman gushed over the economy, stating that it is "firing on all cylinders!" following the release of a jobs report that showed better-than-expected job creation of 216,000 in December and an unemployment rate of 3.7 percent. Berman interviewed Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, asking why people keep underestimating the economy. Yellen responded by saying that there has been unwarranted pessimism about the economy and that the labor market continues to perform well. She also mentioned that inflation has come down, wages are increasing, and Americans are becoming more optimistic about the economy. Yellen expressed hope for a sustained period of low inflation and continued economic growth.
