#DonTheCon's Treasury Sec Scott #Bessent, said on #ThisWeek that the #StockMarket has recovered nearly all of its losses after the Market plunge in early January, and "The Media called it the worst Market plunge in 100 years. But just 3 weeks later, the Market has recovered almost all of those [self-inflicted] loses, and I never hear the Media calling this The Greatest Recovery in history."
The #DOW didn't recover BECAUSE of his polices, but b/c he WALKED THEM BACK! #Gaslight

[09:34] Russia doesn’t want ceasefire: But with a pro-Putin Trump, why would it?
In case there was any doubt about which country - Russia or Ukraine - was the obstacle to peace, the Kremlin dispelled it this week with its response to the 30-day ceasefire plan pushed by the Trump administration. Ukrainian representatives unconditionally agreed on Tuesday to the ceasefire during a meeting with U.S. envoys in Saudi Arabia. But on Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin turned down the U.S. overture - even if he did so in language designed not to offend President Donald Trump.

I am willing to criticize Sen. Adam Schiff when he deserves criticism. Today on #ThisWeek, Schiff was wrong to say that the Democratic Party needs to focus on costs to consumers instead of being diverted into talking about other issues. It is wiser to make one issue a priority, but not to ignore all of the other important issues. #politics #media
THE NEW TALKING POINT:
"This isn't a #TradeWar, it's a #DrugWar."
#Lutnick made this point on #MtP, and then Economic Director #Hasset flat out said it on ABC's #ThisWeek.
They are starting to realize #DonnieDumbass' #tariffs are going to RAISE prices and spike #inflation after running on the promise they would do the opposite, so they are test-flying a new justification for their disastrous #TradePolicy: #Fentanyl (despite how little comes from #Canada.)
