Kight: Trump’s Nominee for Treasury Secretary, ‘Has Been Willing to Push’ Trump’s Tariff Strategy

RUSH EXCERPT:

KIGHT: "The biggest thing that I think is interesting with this pick is just how supportive he has been of the president-elect's tariff strategy which has been like a huge part of Trump’s economic plan whether it’s to offset tax cuts, whether it’s to use, to more aggressively pushback against other countries that's something that Trump has repeatedly said he wants to be aggressive on. He said tariffs is the most beautiful word in the dictionary. This is someone who has indicated a willingness to agree with that approach. This is an approach that's not popular with some Republicans and it's likely to cause headaches within Congress, for example. But, Bessent is really someone who has been willing to push that idea as well."
