Unanue’s Strong Criticism of Economic Policies
During an interview on “Fox & Friends Weekend,” Goya Foods CEO Bob Unanue blasted the Biden-Harris administration, accusing it of policies that lead to increased poverty in America. He drew a stark contrast between the economic conditions under the current administration and the prosperity experienced during Donald Trump’s presidency.
Unanue highlighted several key issues including heightened inflation, ongoing supply chain problems, and restrictive regulatory measures that have burdened both businesses and ordinary citizens. He expressed disbelief at claims suggesting that the economic situation is better under Biden-Harris than before.
“You have two records that are very clear that Donald Trump had prosperity. And, the Harris-Biden administration gave us inflation and basically poverty. They’re driving us into poverty. Poverty is slavery,” Unanue stated in the interview.
Array of Concerns Addressed
Bob Unanue has been vocal about various policies and their adverse impacts. He specifically criticized the administration’s focus on “price controls” for groceries by Vice President Kamala Harris instead of addressing crucial issues like border security.
Unanue claims that under the Biden-Harris administration, issues such as inadequate border control have exacerbated problems of child and human trafficking. He alleged that the administration is “complicit” in these issues due to their failure to enforce stricter border policies.
Criticism of “War on Fossil Fuels” and Economic Comparisons
Unanue also criticized the administration’s “war on fossil fuels,” noting that actions like halting the Keystone pipeline have significantly impacted energy prices and, consequently, the overall economy. He argued that these actions have worsened inflation and made life more difficult for average Americans.
In his critique, Unanue emphasized the importance of purpose and work. He argued that the current policies encourage dependency rather than productivity, leading to more severe economic instability. “Illegals coming into this country received nearly $4,000 in benefits,” while the average Social Security check is only $1,200.
A Call for Change
Unanue stated that in the upcoming November elections, Americans face a choice between continued poverty and a potential return to prosperity. He has firmly positioned himself as a supporter of former President Trump and has spoken at the Republican National Convention. He received the 2024 HOPE Award from the nonprofit organization ‘Hope Through Education,’ further underscoring his commitment to policy and advocacy.
Unanue’s remarks demonstrate his frustration with the current administration and his belief that a rigorous change in policy direction is necessary. As he prepares to release his book titled, “Blessed, Donald J. Trump and the Spiritual War: How the Battle for the Soul of this Country Began With One Word,” it is clear that his criticisms are not just fleeting comments but part of a larger ideological battle.
