Rep. Jim Himes Takes Apart TACO-Boy's 'Con Man' Commerce Secretary Lutnick
Connecticut Democratic Rep. Jim Himes gave Trump's Commerce Secretary the treatment he deserves when asked about Trump's continued threats to fire the Fed Chair, Jerome Powell.
Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan asked Himes what happens if Trump does fire Powell, even though he does not have the authority to do that without cause, and Himes immediately shifted to this nonsense that came out of Lutnick's mouth just before Himes came on.
Howard Lutnick says many amazing trade deals are coming in 2 weeks: “The next two weeks are going to be weeks for the record books!”
