To add some extra detail to this, she struggled for a second after saying the dow was over 50,000 with what unit that was, started to say dollars, but interrupted herself halfway through the word dollars to accuse Sen Jamie Raskin of being good at stock trading (hinting at the admittedly pretty open trading by congress members and senators that definitely resembles insider trading).
But the point I was trying to get around to was that the DOW is an index, and unit she should have used was "points" not "dollars." And then Peter Navarro got on Maria Bartatomo's Fox News Sunday show and also referred to the DOW being over "50,000 dollars."
So, yes, fundamentally Pam Bondi gave a really callous non-answer to something anyone with a functioning heart really cares about, but in her deflection/non-answer she also showed her own ignorance about the subject she was trying to use as a deflection.
