Keep voting, America; it's working. Have faith in the Federal Government
Lenin’s grandfather was Jewish. Socialism leads to communism. Rico took out the Italian mafia in America but never showed its fangs to the Jewish mob. We traded Allen Dorfman for Larry Fink. The Epstein type blackmail has been effecting our national interest since j Edgar hover’s boyfriend got gaslighted
"Market competition" meanwhile tech companies bribe the president. The invisible hand works. Haha.
Talking about growth with a $40T unplayable debt 😂😂😂. Will Bessent say in national TV U.S. is beyond broke?
Bessent is just another know-nothing appointment by our know-nothing crooked president. He will say whatever Trump tells him to say and has zero respect in the United States. A word to my fellow Americans: Now the MAGA should all know what they did. If not??? back to kindergarten. Going forward, voting for ANY Republican good or bad will only increase Trump's ability to turn the USA into an autocracy. Just DON'T do it!! You may notice that the illiterate "Bessent" is blaming Ukraine for fuel prices. Ukraine was a peaceful nation until a few thousand tanks rolled in from Russian. Get your brain working Bessent. You are making the USA look very stupid (A reflection of yourself).
Selling organs.
In recent days, Bessent has revealed himself as nothing less than Trump's anal cling-on!
They're so capitalist, they're nationalizing private companies and propping up bond markets to sustain government overspending.
Agree with Kudlow.
When banks fail, let Free Market Capitalism crush them out of existence.
Bailing them out with Socialism does NOT work.!
We need protectionism
"Trump's policies is an example for the world" 😂😂😂
Yes, for record high debt, ruining trade collaborations, ultimate corruption and pure lunacy!
No, thanks! Keep it to yourself.
What i see is what the revolutionary war was about. High taxes and wealth in the hands of the few.
I think the law should start protecting us from you all that think socialism is the answer all the lawyers in our government what do they do turn their faces or stay in denial I believe that charges against the people in government should be done you all speak but no action what ur conscience is clear bc you say things where is the action we need where,?????
Who the hell do you people think you all are the people of USA put you in office to protect our Capitalism country are you telling the people that the Democrats and Rhinos have the right just to pull is in socialism,we are fighting and ser the agenda they thought they were bring us Now Now are we still in danger from our own senators and Congress how about the people rights U think The American should be told on all stations all channels if we are danger due to Congress and Senate alerts need to go off now ,, the American people are alive we see you alerts should go out people trust you all you want to take a rights away well let us know
Did he say the N word? Crazy.
Time to get my $5 out of the US banking sysyem. This will ultimately weaken the US dollar. Good job guys keep it up.
Burn the currency, burn the Government start over with the Constitution and these, the New World Tyrants, strung up in the Capital Lawn as a Refresher of What Happens to Tyrants in the Republic.
The failure is a lack of savings. Cheap leverage has destroyed the world. AI is sucking all of the capital out of the economy and the ultimate result is languishing Treasuries due to high rates.
This admin is one big extortion racket. Three time Trump voter.
Bessent frames going around stealing resources and "industry security" ok bro
Funny how he doesn’t mention the interest on the national debt. Yeah 👍…thanks buddy.😂
🍕 💩
The same Japan that the U.S. just had to prop up their collapsing currency weeks ago??? 🤣 Scotty is VERY confused on every level.
Free Enterprise yet, The United States is 40 Trillion in Debt.
No one give a sheeet what you say! Fix your 40 trillion debt first!!! Joker!!!
All good,but no such thing as a free market when you have central banks setting the price of fiat money…
We don't currently have Free Enterprise and competition, we have had government step in and save the system and keep the status quo
Jfc maga is stupid
All of those new jobs from that private-sector investment will be taken over by robots and AI technology. Tens of millions of Americans are set to lose their jobs.
What an absolute pile of old tosh
Socialism….let's start with flock cameras & data centers. We can see the writing on the wall
Delusional
Maximum efficiency is not maximally secure. Economics 101. Anyone who ever took an intro international economics course should know and remember this point. We are watching this fact play out in real time with the PRC.
This fact applies to the US public education system as well. Introducing hyper-competition into US schooling systems has fragmented the learning experience and injected too much ideology–both to the far right and far left. It may be more economically efficient from a microeconomics, Milton Friedman-school viewpoint, but it is not the balanced, cohesive approach to acquiring foundational objective knowledge, healthy national pride, and sound critical thinking and writing skills that the US needs its citizens to command. The US needs a nationwide return to centrism and non-aligned, independent citizens who can navigate different points along political and knowledge spectra.
OG What a farcal presentation
Exactly, we don't need Socialism, no country deserves to be destroyed by Socialism…..!!!!
No idea how people with a mortgage and any other debt to their name are making it out there. Gotta be paycheck to paycheck
