Show Notes
President Donald Trump traveled to Michigan yesterday to tout the economy's performance during his second administration. He spoke at the Detroit Economic Club for about an hour, but the speech included false or misleading information about inflation, wage growth, drug prices, tax breaks, and more. Today, we'll provide some fact-checking. Also on today's program, we'll learn about bank earnings, China's trade surplus, and what happens when Social Security funding runs out.
