Fucking With The Money

White House Press have teeth:

 Leavitt: Tariffs are a tax hike on foreign countries and a tax cut for the American people 

Reporter: Have you ever paid a tariff? I have. They don’t get charged on foreign countries 

Leavitt: I think it’s insulting that you are trying test my knowledge on economics

Besides, Leavitt just says what she's told to say.  It's not like she's expected to know anything.... 

Biting little teeth:

Reporter: He said around $500 billion to $700 billion, there was no evidence to claim that

Leavitt: If you read his full quote, he said we think, so it is an estimate

An estimate courtsy of Professor Otto Yerass. 

Even Doocy is awake:
Doocy: They came in trying to get federal workers to retire by the hundreds of thousands. But it is tough to make the argument you should retire if your retirement accounts are getting throttled which is what is happening right now
So he wants to follow the money:
Doocy: You sure nobody here shorted the Dow?
