and yes, sometimes politics does create strange bedfellows. But in this case, he's just reporting on his own understanding of what makes the economy strong, he's not identifying himself with any candidate. But from his experience, and what he says about the velocity of money...he's absolutely correct.
Hillary apparently does not "get it", and I'm thinking a lot of her supporters have pretty comfortable incomes (some here have even admitted as much) and they don't "get it" either. They are only interested in protecting the wealth at the top, or those rising to the top. Screw everyone else. We need peons who are desperate enough to work for the low wages we want to pay, and the establishment is right on track, as are the trade policies (which Clinton will be happy to support if she's elected).
