Summary

To refi or not to refi? That might the question if President Trump's 50-year mortgage plan goes through. On paper, it sounds great! The median age for first-time homebuyers is now 40. The American Dream means owning your home. Being able to finance it for 50 years may knock a significant chunk off your monthly payment. But American debt is already sky high. Is it wise to make payments on a home well after you're retired and pay thousands more long-term in interest? Mike takes your calls and discusses with Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow. Mike also asks Alex about Antifa chaos at his alma mater, UC-Berkeley. Is this just another day at Berkeley? Or does the recent Antifa-caused violence at a TPUSA event mean something more?
