Bessent outlines Trump administration plans for tariffs, housing crisis and Fed chairman selection

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, in a wide-ranging interview on 'Mornings with Maria,' weighs in on President Donald Trump's meeting with Vladimir Putin, updates U.S.-China trade talks and housing affordability crisis solutions.

A new report released Friday from the Congressional Budget Office is surprising, even stunning. The "CBO" is not thought to be a friend of Republican presidents and Congresses. Questions always arise from "supply-siders" about whether CBO rejects serious "dynamic scoring" of developments in the law and in major regulatory actions. Whatever the agency’s methodology, it issued a report on the Trump tariffs at the close of last week.

"We project that increases in tariffs implemented during the period from January 6, 2025, to August 19, 2025 will decrease primary deficits (which exclude net outlays for interest) by $3.3 trillion if the higher tariffs persist for the 2025‒2035 period," Phillip Swagel, CBO’s director wrote. "By reducing the need for federal borrowing, those tariff collections will also reduce federal outlays for interest by an additional $0.7 trillion. As a result, the changes in tariffs will reduce total deficits by $4.0 trillion altogether."

The report is here. 

TRUMP'S TARIFF REVENUE HAS SKYROCKETED IN JUST A FEW MONTHS, SOARING PAST 2024 LEVELS

Free traders should be scratching their heads as they review all the data, including that in this CBO "Update." Inflation has not spiked. Growth has not plummeted. The revenue from tariffs is enormous. An international trade war has not broken out.
