MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” panel said on Tuesday that the stock market and border crossings have both improved since the Biden-Harris administration replaced former President Donald Trump.
Co-host Mika Brzezinski argued the Dow Jones Industrial Average’s (DOW) 1,000 point drop on Monday still left it 7,500 points higher than when Trump exited the White House on Jan. 20, 2021. The DOW fell 2.60% on Monday while the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq fell 3.00% and 3.43% after a damning jobs report revealed on Friday that the unemployment rate climbed to 4.3%.
“So people are that much richer who are calling Biden and [Vice President Kamala] Harris socialists,” co-host Joe Scarborough said. “So can I just, if they’re keeping score at home, the stock market is 7,500 points higher than it was when Donald Trump left office. Also, illegal border crossings are lower now than they were when Donald Trump left office. That’s all I have to say for now, it’s fascinating what a good job Biden and Harris have done and I’m looking forward to hearing about it on other right-leaning networks.”
