😂 HOLY CRAP — Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just HUMILIATED a reporter on live TV.The reporter tried to play “gotcha” over Trump’s tariffs — and got absolutely schooled.REPORTER: “Why are Trump’s tariffs not a tax?!”BESSENT: “Tariffs are not a tax, it’s a surcharge. When you pay a fee for your driver’s license, is that a tax? Is it?”REPORTER: “I’m asking you a question, sir, I’d just appreciate an answer.”BESSENT: “I’m giving you an answer you maybe don’t like.”Then he dropped the mic with a laugh:“I won’t tell you the one thing I agreed with Lenin on.” 😂This is what it looks like when Team Trump fights back against the fake news spin — with facts, confidence, and zero tolerance for media nonsense.
