WASHINGTON – Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) joined The Brian Kilmeade Show on Fox News Radio to discuss President Trump’s successful economic policies and Mayor Zohran Mamdani's proposal to raise property taxes in New York City.
"[The] economy is growing very strongly because of Donald Trump and his policies":
"Here's the truth of the Trump economy: inflation is under control for the first time in five years, and that is because of Donald Trump and his economic policy. Wages adjusted for inflation are up for the first time in almost six years, and that's because of Donald Trump's economic policies. [The] economy is growing very strongly because of Donald Trump and his policies."
"When they [Democrats] get caught not having enough money, their only answer is to go tax more":
"Look, what they need to do in New York is what they should have done a long time ago. They have to cut the city's budget. They can't just continue to do all these various programs they have in that budget, making outlandish promises that they can't deliver on. And you have to embrace free market capitalism so you can grow New York's economy. That is the way this works. That's the way this always works... They [Democrats] don't know how to run real policies. They don't know how to run local economies. They don't know how to run governments. They're out of control. And when they get caught not having enough money, their only answer is to go tax more."
