Treasury Secretary Bessent says China's escalation was 'big mistake,' country playing with 'losing hand'

China plays a very long game. These people in this administration are morons.

This administration needs a better poker face before it starts using card game metaphors. The panic is showing.

He means the US is playing with a losing hand, right? :anakin-meme:

Who owns the debt?

Having an army of yesmen is convenient... except when you are an absolute moron and the yesmen only accentuate your own stupidity and incapacity.

This guy is such a massive waste of space. 9 times out of 10 when he's asked an economic question, "I don't know" is his answer. And then the few other times he says shit like this, which also isn't helpful.
