Topics Discussed in This Video:
Kamala’s Democratic Convention Speech: The panel discusses Kamala Harris’s recent speech at the Democratic Convention, emphasizing its patriotic tone and how it contrasts with the economic challenges presented in her policies.

Housing Market Crisis: The conversation shifts to the state of the housing market, addressing the causes of the current crisis and exploring potential policy solutions that could alleviate the burden for Americans struggling with homeownership and rising prices.
The Effects of Tariffs: The panel discusses the long-term effects of tariffs imposed during the Trump administration and how they could influence both the American economy and global trade dynamics under future leadership.
Harris vs Trump Debate Predictions: Lastly, as the political landscape heats up, the panelists offer their predictions on the upcoming debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, focusing on their differing communication styles, key issues, and how the debate may sway the crucial independent voters.
