Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is drawing ridicule from Wall Street voices after continuing to blast President Donald Trump’s economy — even as key indicators show strong growth, low inflation, and a surging stock market.
During a recent broadcast of CNBC’s Squawk Box, hosts Rick Santelli and Joe Kernen openly mocked Warren’s doomsday rhetoric, accusing her and other Democrats of denying economic reality for political gain.
“The left — the people who don’t like the president — don’t want things to work,” Kernen said.
“Senator Elizabeth Warren will come on and say, ‘Inflation is OUT OF CONTROL,’ and ‘The economy is getting killed by these tariffs!’”
Kernen countered Warren’s claims with hard data, noting that inflation remains below 3% and the GDP grew by 3% in Q2, outpacing expectations. He also pointed out that the stock market is hitting new highs, undermining the left’s narrative of economic crisis.

Santelli: “Don’t Pick a Congress Member as Your Money Manager”
Santelli added his own jab at Warren, saying there’s a lesson in watching her economic commentary:
“Don’t pick a member of Congress to be your financial adviser,” he quipped.
Market and GDP Data Paint a Strong Picture
-
Q2 GDP grew at 3.0%, a significant rebound from the Q1 contraction.
-
Tariff revenues are surging past $150 billion, creating a budget surplus.
-
The stock market continues to set new records, signaling strong investor confidence.
Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has said the U.S. is on track to take in over $300 billion in tariffs this year — a major reversal from deficits seen under the previous administration.
Trump Responds to Fed, Presses for Rate Cut
President Trump has continued to press the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates, citing strong economic indicators and flat inflation. He’s also pushing aggressive new trade deals and tariffs, leveraging America’s economic momentum.
Warren’s Strategy Backfires?
Critics say Warren’s shrill economic warnings are falling flat as voters see the reality of their 401(k)s growing and prices staying stable.
“It’s all about fear and control,” one commentator said. “Warren wants people to think the sky is falling — but under Trump, the sun’s out and business is booming.”
