BESSENT: Again, Kristen, terrible framing

BRENNAN: 60% of Americans disapprove of the US taking military action against Iran. 57% think the conflict is going badly. How do you tell the American people they're wrong?

Bessent surely makes liberal use out of the 14 magic money computers that create money out of thin air that Musk found at the treasury dept. So, to possibly consider raising taxes was an absurd question to ask.
