Florida Rep. Byron Donalds (R) on Tuesday rebuffed Left-wing commentator and lawyer Angela Rye during an appearance on popular New York City radio show “The Breakfast Club.”
Co-host Charlamagne tha God and Rye both insisted that Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democrat’s presidential nominee, has nothing to do with the struggling economy. Rye, in particular, suggested Donalds was lying about his explanation, which was factually true.
“I would argue we’re not really thriving right now,” Donalds said of the current economic climate. “This inflation, which by the way was brought to us by Kamala Harris, has really slowed people down from being able to excel.”
“By Kamala?” Charlamagne questioned Donalds. “She’s vice president. There’s still a president.”
“Oh, Charlamagne,” Donalds responded, before explaining that Harris cast the tie-breaking vote on the near-2 trillion dollar “American Rescue Plan.” “She broke the tie that started this inflation that has hurt so many people in our country,” the representative said.
Rye interjected to suggest Donalds wasn’t being honest, quietly uttering that his statement is “not true.”
“You sure you want to go there?” Donalds asked Rye, before pulling out a stack of notes from his jacket pocket.
“He got notes!” Charlamagne, giving off a laugh, told Rye.

Donalds told Rye that economic minds, including Larry Summers, a financial advisor to former President Barack Obama, warned that the legislation would create massive inflation. Donalds noted that he knew this, too, and therefore voted against the bill.
Donalds reiterated how wages adjusted for inflation were higher under Trump, and said Harris “broke the economy” and shouldn’t be hired again to try to fix what she broke.
Rye struggled to address Donalds’ arguments and replied, “I’m not going to do this, this morning.”
Donalds posted the clip to X this week, captioning the post: “On Mar 4, 2021, Kamala cast the TIE-BREAKING vote on the $1.9T American Rescue Plan. Democrat economists warned her it would cause inflation. And it did.”
“It caused 20+% inflation. It created a cost-of-living crisis. It crushed hardworking Americans,” he added. “Kamala broke our economy.”
