There isn’t a single industry that Donald Trump hasn’t influenced with his unpredictable choices. From federal employees to those depending on government assistance for food, soybean farmers to cattle ranchers, Trump’s behaviour has impacted everyone. Yet, he refuses to acknowledge this, and so do his loyal supporters.
United States Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent, who has shown his unrelenting support for Donald Trump in the past, is maintaining a similar position during his conversation with NBC host Kristen Welker about the rising inflation under the leadership of the current President of the United States. When pressed about the soaring inflation rates that reached 3 per cent and the significant price hikes of various goods like coffee, beef, and bacon, Bessent resorted to the usual Republican strategies of deflection and lies to mask Trump’s shortcomings.
