My Feud with Trumpβs Brainless Treasury Secretary | The Coffee Klatch for Saturday, August 22, 2026
Keeps playing with the screen off. The episode is played from Robert Reichβs own podcast host.
Friends,
Today Heather and I take a deep dive into the wacko views and decisions of Trumpβs treasury secretary, Scott Bessent β whose attempts to reduce long-term interest rates before the midterm elections have failed miserably, who believes that inequality is not widening in the United States, and whoβs been opening the I.R.S. to Trumpβs bonkers vindictiveness. (Oh, and heβs also been attacking me with colossally vapid ad hominem arguments.)
So please pull up a chair, grab a cuppa, and join in the conversation.
RR
