Appearing on This Week with George Stephanopoulos, regime commander for the hard left, White House Director of the National Economic Council, Kevin Hasset, shared that, “more than 50 countries have reached out to the president to begin a negotiation.”
Despite all the media pontification to the contrary, this notation should not come as a surprise, considering how dependent many emerging nations are on access to the U.S consumer market.
The ‘taking a knee’ sequencing should be reviewed through two closely intertwined metrics. (1) The wealth of the nation; and (2) the dependency of the nation. Both metrics are closely aligned, and that will be the commonality of the first to line up to join a zero-tariff trade agreement.
More wealthy, parasitic and ideologically opposed nations will fight hard before they acquiesce. However, they will eventually acquiesce and come to terms. The wealthy nations (like EU etc.) will be the most vocal in opposition to the global trade reset; and they will also be the voices we should see strategically ignored by President Trump.
NEC Director Kevin Hassett cuts through the Stephanopoulos talking points like a ninja quokka. WATCH:
You know Stephanopoulos is outwitted when he relies upon Rand Paul to frame his narrative. lol
Regarding the Russia talking point. How is Trump supposed to calculate a tariff regime against a country we have placed under trade sanctions with a full economic embargo? There’s no current U.S. trade with Russia, deficit or otherwise, so there’s nothing to tariff.
A dimwit on another platform, a few days ago had same point about Iran. Then I saw his multiple posts and realized it was likely a bot, or a troll. I deleted my reply, which essentially said SD reply re Russia.
I like that he pointed out to little george that his old boss slick Willy is the one who let China into the WTO and that’s demonstrably when real wages fell for 15 plus years. He also schooled him on supply and demand being elastic based on pricing. Markets will find their equilibrium! Meanwhile energy and interest rates dropped all week! That will put real cash in pockets instantly! I hope the democRATS are reminded of these tax/inflation positions next time Suck Schumer and Bernie are crying about corporations not paying their “fair share” news flash dems, corporations don’t pay tax, they collect it from the consumer for the bloated government.
They do pay tax on their profit. Or they should.
Georgie should be happy
The egg on his face was highly discounted.
🙂 Nice one
The USA free trade bloc.
george S. Painful
I really dislike George. Huge lying phony.
I’d like to put George in a vice and squeeze until the lying venom comes out. Then he could become whole again and see how glorious the truth is.
He really is a “Nasty Woman”. Great to see Kevin hit back with a smile and the facts at each turn. Liddle Georgie’s vagina must have hurt after that interview.
Spain and Italy are for negotiations and against reciprocal tariffs.
France and Germany are quite the opposite. One can tell how it’s all bluster by the German minister’s statement.
“We are in a strong position. We can join forces with many countries, with many regions of the world and increase the pressure on the Americans accordingly,” German Economy Minister Robert Habeck said on April 3.
It they were really in a strong position, they wouldn’t need to try to scramble and find countries in “many regions” to do anything.
“Ve are ens see stronk position!
Ve haff vays to make you poor!!
The Fatherland vill never let Amerikan products into ze Fatherland vithout tariffs!”
“Heil Tariffs! 💰
Heil EU!
Heil the euro! 💶”
Oh shut the heil up!!
Sunday is when the Dimm talking points all get in sync.

I guess I needed very occasionally an interview like this to remind me what a totally disingenuous gotcha-fest the corporate media is. Gag me with a spoon.
Stephanopoulos is playing a related version of the thoroughly juvenile game of “I know you are but what am I…”
I like the way he is basically laughing at the ridiculous comments and questions by this Leftist TDS propagandist throughout the interview. It seems he had to really restrain himself from busting out laughing. That is exactly how to treat these FakeNews pundits. They can’t be taken seriously ever again.
Lil Georgies demon is eating him alive. You can see it. Every time I see him he is more and more rat than man.
Goof Lie-alopoulus, always gaslighting and lying. Hassett backs him up good
These lefties…their fake intellectual questions, the furrowed brow, their hard hitting questions…as they suppose. Always with the pen in the hand. Marxists, all of them.
