OpinionSomehow Missed this One of Scott Bessent being asked "Who Pays the Tariffs?"

Of course just like every Trump loyalist, cabinet nominee - that similarly refuse to say that "Biden won the 2020 election": you can tell when they either refuse to say it, or try to dance around the question.

This case is far more obvious though because it has Scott Bessent blinking a ton, delaying and trying to quickly think up a way to detract/distract from the question.

I'm glad all of these criminals are on film perjuring themselves - like it all doesn't matter and they have it rigged and with pardons on the way. While that might be true, I believe once we have different leadership in a position of power - we the people must demand investigations and to follow the money: the flow of money tells the complete story here and it doesn't matter if they have been "pardoned" because: (1) you must pardon someone for a crime... you cannot pardon preemptively; and (2) by following the money we'll discover high level of corruption and crimes they wouldn't even dream of reaching the discovery process.

In terms of where the money should go: it should flow back to the American people, and to reinstate the programs which we pay for, but have been liquidated. Americans are hurting, and these criminals will one day need to be held to account. Scott Bessent just so happens to have the same surprised look: a popsicle has when it is having its stick inserted into it; which is one part pleasure, one part comedic - in his own sadistic twisted brain. The math doesn't math and he knows it; and he can cut the sophisticated, up tight and perpetual "retentive" look and smirk on his face.
