Is Trump’s economy actually working — or is the data telling a different story? In this episode of Is It Bad For The Economy?, Democratic Strategist Kobi Tirey and anonymous Wall Street insider Banker Bill dig into the latest economic data: CPI inflation stubbornly range-bound at 2.6–3.3%, mortgage rates spiking back toward 6.4%, a protein basket that’s as mixed as ever, and a labor force participation rate at its lowest since 1977. They cover tariff risk, demand destruction, the federal deficit, gold repatriation, Iran sanctions, Trump’s stablecoin controversy, and whether a recession is already baked in. If you want the charts, the context, and the unfiltered take — this is it.
