Reaganesque and Trumpian optimism - Kudlow

What this episode covers

Scott Bessent is probably the strongest wartime U.S. Treasury Secretary going all the way back, at least to World War Two. Through his Economic Fury campaign, he has slowly but surely turned Iran's monetary and economic spigots completely off. Not only the blockade of Iranian ports, which has stopped their oil sales and revenues, but also his putting an end to their shadow banking system through aggressive use and modernization of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control. With Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Michael Faulkender, Douglas Holtz-Eakin and Michael Boskin. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
