Jonathan Capehart Laughs at Bessent Saying Trump Tariffs Are ‘Deliberately Confusing:’ The Presidency ‘Isn’t a Game’

‘although Trump’s authoritarian crackdown has made him harder to challenge, the opposition is growing’

EXCERPT:

CAPEHART: "The problem is — (Laughs) — the problem is, Trump’s presidency isn’t a game. The past 100 days have proven that his threat to our economy and democracy that Democrats warned about all last year is all too real. And although Trump’s authoritarian crackdown has made him harder to challenge, the opposition is growing. Today, Democratic lawmakers and hundreds of protesters gathered on the steps of the U.S. Capitol to challenge Trump’s budget cuts. They set a tone of defiance as Congress returns to work tomorrow, and Americans brace for Trump’s next 100 days."
