Diane’s farewell message
After 52 years at WAMU, Diane Rehm says goodbye.
In poll after poll voters say economic issues top their concerns when it comes to this year’s vote. They say they worry about inflation, the price of housing, and whether their family can afford the bill at the grocery store.
“Americans are going to want to know how each candidate will help them in their personal situations,” says Damian Paletta. He leads The Wall Street Journal’s coverage of Washington and says that the economy is strong, but on shaky ground, which has complicated Kamala Harris and Donald Trump’s messaging around the economy and issues like inflation and taxes.
Paletta joins Diane to look at the economic proposals of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, and break down what they would mean for our country – and your pocketbook.
