Summary

A recent Monmouth University poll indicates that many Americans think President Joe Biden is too old to be re-elected. The now-80-year-old has been subject to scrutiny throughout his term for frequent gaffes and concerns about his cognitive ability. Pollster and president of Maslansky+Partners, Lee Carter, joins the Rundown to talk about what the polls are telling us about the state of voter confidence and the possibility of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. running as an independent candidate. Homeownership has become unaffordable in 99 percent of the country, according to new real estate data. The average American income earner takes home approximately $71,000 a year, while the average rent for a one-bedroom apartment is $1,702. That’s about $20,000 a year, meaning the poverty guideline for one person doesn’t even cover rent. Experts like Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman told FOX Business that the market may be at “rock bottom,” but he anticipates it could get worse. Is the American dream of owning a home no longer within reach? FOX Business’ Gerri Willis joins the podcast to explain how homeownership became unattainable and what future buyers must do to keep the dream within reach. Plus, commentary by a former investment banker and author of 'You Will Own Nothing,' Carol Roth. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
