Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and guest host Frank Ward take you through this week’s biggest political stories, including:

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” directed at folks who don’t get that the stock market is not the economy and you can’t cite Trump as the reason for its ups and downs as it benefits you politically.
