Halfway through the Sunday, May 31, episode, called Dave Rubin vs 20 Far-Left Democrats, liberal social media persona Parker Sedgwick stepped up to ask Rubin to name a single side of the financial system that has improved since the 79-year-old Commander-in-Chief returned to workplace last yr.

“What is one main metric that Donald Trump has made better off since he got into office?” requested Sedgwick. “An example would be GDP, unemployment, inflation, et cetera.”

“Right now… first off, the Big Beautiful Bill was just passed last year, it’s kicking in now, right?” Rubin answered. “It’s kicking in now, so we are see… we’re going to now see results of that.”

He continued, “Like… even the tariffs, so let’s do tariffs – are you for or against tariffs?”

Sedgwick refused to let him bypass the query, answering, “I’m against the universal tariffs – so what’s the main metric that he made better off?”

“What?” Rubin requested, prompting laughter from the viewers, who realized that the visitor was stalling before answering. “What’s the main metric that he made better off, any idea?” Sedgwick questioned again.

“Listen…,” Rubin started, only to draw more laughter from the viewers. “I don’t think you do,” Sedgwick famous.

“Hold on,” Rubin answered. “So you’re arguing that things economically were better under Joe Biden… Can you give me an example of how?”

“Yeah GDP growth was better off, real median wage growth was better off, inflation was better off at the end of his administration, unemployment was better off at the end of his administration,” Sedgwick said shortly.

He added, “We had the worst year of job growth this last year under Trump’s administration. Inflation was 3.8 percent year-over-year since Trump got in office.

Podcast host Brian Shapiro was even more brutal in his comment, which read, “This is just about every MAGA speaking head in media. Dave is a full imbecile. This was embarrassing.”

The president’s approval scores have continued to plummet in latest months, largely due to his handling of the U.S. and Israel’s battle with Iran, which has elevated fuel and oil costs.
