Two Words for Trump's First 100 Days - Scott Bessent

from Light Beer Dark Money · host Chris Clements and Sean Noble

The Trump Administration's first 100 days can only be described as a constant rollercoaster movie of twists and turns and ups and downs, as we have consistently run out of popcorn while spilling it all over the floor.  We see a dichotomy of policy and results.  With immigration - an overwhelmingly secure border, but lawfare bogging down the ability to deport criminal terrorists. With the economy - a full dismantling of the regulatory state across several industries, but a needless trade war that threatens to cripple Trump's entire presidency. On foreign policy - the needed consolidation of resources and missions within the State Department with a competent executive in Secretary Rubio, but a haphazard and discombobulated approach to ending the Russia-Ukraine conflict. We could go on. But the bright spot emerging within the chaos is Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent - a serious and thoughtful voice throughout the administration who seems to understand that the time to settle the trade issues while extending real tax reform is of the essence.Follow Light Beer Dark Money on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LightBeerDarkMoney/Follow Light Beer Dark Money on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lightbeerdarkmoney/Follow Light Beer Dark Money on Twitter: https://twitter.com/LBDMshow Follow Light Beer Dark Money on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/light-beer-dark-money/
