Lmao!!! Lutnick is an idiot, I'll give you that, but saying Scott Bessent "lacks even a basic high school level of education" is one of the dumbest things I've read on this board and that's saying a lot. That dude has forgotten more about economics than you'll ever know. Just because you can google something and read up on it, doesn't make you an expert.
You talking about the same Scott Bessent that advised that people move from expensive blue states to poorer red states to help counteract the pinch of inflation?
The same Scott Bessent that claimed mass immigration had brought a cattle disease back up through Mexico and that was contributing to higher costs for beef?
The same Scott Bessent that thinks there are a bunch of Americans that own 10 or 12 homes?
The same Scott Bessent that claimed the Supreme Court DIDN'T rule against Trump's tariffs?
The same Scott Bessent that supports Trump pressuring the Fed to drop rates?
The same Scott Bessent that claims tariffs don't cause inflation?
We talking about the same guy?
Because for someone that's forgotten more about economics than I've ever known, he sure comes off like a colossally out of touch moron.
