7/6/16 - Mark Levin Audio Rewind

The Republican Party has become the party of Herbert Hoover, protectionism and big central government. President Herbert Hoover signed the Smoot Hawley tariff and ignited an international trade war. Hoover’s efforts to minimize the damage imposed by Smoot-Hawley resulted in a monumental disaster. Americans need to ask themselves if they believe in capitalism or not. Massive tariffs don’t encourage free markets or lead to economic growth. Economics is based on supply and demand and based on choice, not protectionism. When did protectionism ever create jobs? Free markets create more economic wealth than any other system. After that, imagine what would be possible if we had a new 8 years of Reagan economic policies. Instead we have President Obama, the anti-Reagan, in office and the Republican Whigs who are crony capitalists. Finally, Trump’s VP choices are now coming down to Newt Gingrich and Governor Mike Pence, of Indiana. It will likely come down to Mike Pence as he has the conservative credentials, so he would be a solid choice.
