Watch: GOP lawmaker accidentally makes a good case for Biden's record



A Republican lawmaker appeared on Newsmax on Friday to warn his party about the possibility that Democrats may switch out President Joe Biden ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

However, in the process, he inadvertently make a strong case for Biden's record while in office.

During the interview, Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA) was asked about the dangers that someone such as Vice President Kamala Harris could take over from Biden at the top of the ticket and experience a media honeymoon that could last right up until the presidential election in November.

McCormick agreed with this assessment about the media environment surrounding Harris, and then added a bunch of positive economic indicators that could further cloud Republicans' efforts to win in November.

"If you look at what's going on in the markets, the stock markets have set several records in the last month," he said. "If you look at interest rates, they're probably going to come down in September, not really enough to affect the market, but you're going to have still a low unemployment rate."

Added to this, he said, the falling number of illegal border crossings in recent months could give Biden an argument that he "quote-unquote did something about the border."

Despite a lot of positive economic news in recent months -- including cooling inflation, continued strong job growth, and a strong stock market -- Democrats have struggled to get credit for it.
