Republican Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Dan Bishop of North Carolina, as well as Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance, spoke about the consequences of record-high inflation and NATO weaknesses Wednesday.
weaknesses during the"Up from Chaos" conference hosted by American Moment, a conservative nonprofit, and The American Conservative magazine.
Vance, the Senate candidate from Ohio and author of"Hillbilly Elegy," similarly told Fox News Digital that inflation is one issue he hears"most about on the campaign trail.""Inflation is very bad. It’s one of the things I hear most about on the campaign trail. The way that I think about it is: you’ve got a lot of grandparents in Ohio, who, like my grandparents, took care of me.
"One of the reasons we have an inflation problem is because we’re spending money that we don’t have," he said."And so, if you say we’re not going to tax middle-class people, but then you propose a budget that causes inflation to go up by 10%, well, you are taxing middle-class people. You’re just doing it through inflation."
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is an intergovernmental, military-political alliance between the United States, Canada and a number of European countries. NATO was founded after World War II in 1949 in an effort to protect NATO countries against threats from Russia — then the Soviet Union. Bishop and Vance pointed to former President Trump's demands that NATO countries commit to putting 2% of their gross domestic product toward NATO defense.
