....in a Trump administration, even smart people like Bessent would have to resort to talking 'irrational' excuses to justify and support what the boss wants.
....why would they succumb to this? They have huge vested personal interests for sure.
....those who don't, don't last like in Trump 1.0.
....don't ever believe a hedge fundie would do national service for free, their salaries do not warrant them doing this show.
Bartiromo loses patience with Bessent over tariffs: "See, these are the things that people are really worried about. Because they first thought it was just about trade. Then they thought it was just about fentanyl. Then after that we talked about, 'well, maybe it's currency manipulation.' Now you're talking about food testing. And when I bring up the issue of clarity, that's what I'm talking about and that's what I'm hearing from corporate America, that we're not sure where this is going."
