Maga Republican leaders and Trump Maga Republican cabinet members were spiraling out of control on live TV on these Sunday shows to try to justify Trump's disastrous presidency, his plummeting approval, the fact that Americans despise the guy. Let me show you what went down. You had Donald Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Besson continuing to say that he owns a soybean farm. He gets called out for it and he goes, Well, I have family members work on it, which we know is not true. Here, play this clip. Since the agreement with the Chinese, they are going to buy 12.5 million metric tons. But Margaret, I'm involved in the agriculture industry. I run a soybean farm and I can tell you what you invest in it.
Sorry. you own or invest. And people in my family go out and work on it. I actually just divested it this week as part of my ethics agreement. So I'm out of that business. But I probably know more about any treasury secretary than about agriculture since the 1800s. And I can tell you that what farmers need is certainty. And we have put that in place with this trade deal. Then you have Maria Bartiromo speaking with MAGA Republican Senator McCormick. about donald trump's economic plans and his policies to which senator mccormick mega republican from pennsylvania says i think the message we need to tell the american people is we inherited a train wreck from biden but we've saved the day here play this clip i think to be with the president on tuesday and what are you expecting the president's messages to be
Well, I'm hoping to be with him. And I was just in Pennsylvania the last three days in that part of Pennsylvania, the northeastern part. And listen, I think I think the message is that we we inherited a train wreck from the Biden administration out of control. Inflation, an enormous regulatory state, real wage growth hadn't kept up. And we've made a lot of progress in the last 12 months with the president's agenda. Inflation is about half of what it was on average during the Biden administration. Real wage growth exceeds the inflation numbers. And you've got all sorts of things that we did right out of the gate, which is putting money in the pockets of working families, whether it's the child care tax credit or no tax on tips, no tax on overtime.
So we've made a lot of progress, but there's a lot more work to do. And I think the president will lay out that agenda and how all the policies that he's put in place are going to help working families. And there's more to come, particularly in deregulation and in energy dominance.
Actually, the economy right now is horrible for most Americans. And you didn't inherit a train wreck. You inherited an economy that The Economist and The Wall Street Journal refer to as the envy of the world. There was a manufacturing boom beginning to take place. I think lots of economic papers called it a Goldilocks economy. Here, going back to Treasury Secretary Scott Besant, he says that actually the economy right now is much better than we thought it would be. What does that even mean? You promised a golden age, and right now it is anything but, and the American people are suffering. Here, play this clip. Lower numbers of purchases and higher prices. The economy has been better than we thought.
