Sec Bessent: I Joined Trump Because Biden’s Debt Strategy Scared Me

TREASURY SEC. SCOTT BESSENT: I JOINED TRUMP BECAUSE BIDEN’S DEBT STRATEGY SCARED ME
.
“One of the reasons I'm sitting here now is about 18 months ago I went to see President Trump to tell him that I wanted to get involved in the campaign because I was so alarmed with what the Biden administration was doing with the debt and deficit.
.
Endless spending when we were in solid economic territory and not in a war - first time ever.
.
And I thought it was very cynical because I actually thought, well, we're going to spend, spend, spend, and then there'll be no choice but to raise taxes.”
