ABC just tried to 'gotcha' Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent and he didn't take ANY of her BS!

ABC just tried to 'gotcha' Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent and he didn't take ANY of her BS!

ABC: You're over there. But here, there is a government shutdown. People are SUFFERING. Should Trump meet with Democrats?!

BESSENT: Well, what GOOD does it do, Martha?! They've dug in. The American people are hostage to Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries' poll numbers! 52 Republican senators have voted 11 times to reopen the government. I call on moderate Democratic senators to end this craziness. You'll be heroes.

ABC: Your party controls the White House and both chambers of Congress. You don't think you bear any responsibility for this?!

BESSENT: WHAT can we do? What can we do for this desperate act? We call on them to change their minds because I can tell you, the $1.5 TRILLION in spending that they're calling for, that's NOT on the table! We inherited a MESS...we're NOT gonna let them be irresponsible with the budget again. https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/1982440172970004830
