NewsTranscript
00:00In an unbelievable moment, Caroline Leavitt was fact checked in real time, schooled by
00:08an Associated Press reporter over her continued denial of reality with regard to how tariffs
00:16work.
00:17Here is a reporter explaining how tariffs really work.
00:22Caroline Leavitt insists that that's not true.
00:25She's wrong.
00:27This is the kind of push, pushback and confrontation that I would like to see every single day
00:32with these liars.
00:33Welcome.
00:34If we could just step back for a second.
00:37When President Trump last addressed the BRT when he was on the campaign trail, his big
00:41push was on tax cuts.
00:43He's going there today as he's proposing tax hikes in the form of tariffs.
00:48And I'm curious.
00:49He's not for why he's prioritizing that over the tax cuts.
00:53He's actually not implementing tax hikes.
00:56Tariffs are a tax hike on foreign countries that, again, have been ripping us off.
01:01Tariffs are a tax cut for the American people.
01:03And the president is a staunch advocate of tax cuts.
01:06As you know, he campaigned on no taxes on tips, no taxes on overtime, no.
01:12Remember that campaigning on something and doing it are two different things.
01:15Taxes on Social Security benefits.
01:17He is committed to all three of those things, and he expects Congress to pass them later
01:21this year.
01:22I'm sorry.
01:23Have you ever paid a tariff?
01:24Because I have.
01:25They don't get charged on foreign companies.
01:26They get charged on the importers.
01:28And ultimately, when we have fair and balanced trade, which the American people have not
01:33seen in decades, as I said at the beginning, revenues will stay here, wages will go up
01:39and our country will be made wealthy again.
01:41And I think I think it's insulting that you are trying to test my knowledge of economics.
01:46How dare you rebut my lies and the decisions that this president has made?
01:51I'm now regret giving a question to the Associated Press.
01:54Mary.
01:55Oh, these people are pathetic.
01:59Good for the reporter.
02:00Truly good for the reporter.
02:01We even heard from Peter Doocy during this press conference where Doocy said there seems
02:07to be such a disregard.
02:08These are my words.
02:09Now, there seems to be such a disregard for the stock market declines.
02:13Has somebody here short sold the Dow where they are making money from this decline?
02:17And she goes, I don't think so.
02:18You said that the Dow dropping and dropping and dropping is a period of transition.
02:23You're sure nobody here at the White House shorted the Dow?
02:26No, I don't think so.
02:28OK.
02:29But is there any concern here that it's going to be harder to ask certain federal workers
02:35to retire if they look at their retirement accounts and they're getting rocked every
02:41day?
02:42Well, I'm glad you brought up workers, because that's exactly who President Trump is looking
02:46out for with his America first trade policy and his America first economic agenda.
02:52And I don't think Doocy's buying it.
02:54If you look at there's great indication to be optimistic about where the economy stands
02:59and the American people, investors, CEOs.
03:02Anyway, so she's talking about optimism as the Dow was down 720 points as she was saying
03:07this.
03:08And finally, another reporter asked, does Trump acknowledge any responsibility for the
03:16stock market chaos?
03:17What do you think she said?
03:18Thanks, Caroline.
03:19Just back on the market.
03:20You said that what we're seeing this week right now on Wall Street is a snapshot of
03:24a moment in time.
03:25But does the president think he bears any responsibility for the turmoil in the stock
03:29market this week?
03:30Look, the president is unwavering in his commitment to restore American manufacturing and global
03:36dominance.
03:37And I think he doubled down on that this morning with his new statement and the tariffs that
03:42will be implemented tomorrow.
03:44Better question.
03:45Does the president think he bears any responsibility for anything negative that has ever happened
03:52under his watch?
03:53You would get the same answer.
03:54The president is committed to a lot of that.
03:56That's that's the way that these people approach it.
03:59At least.
04:00OK, I know that we're, you know, beggars can't be choosers and we're getting scraps.
04:05At least there's an effort being made to push back against this completely bogus story
04:13that everything that Trump promised is coming to fruition and that everything is going so
04:17well.
04:18Now, I'll give you some good news.
04:20Egg price futures have started to come back down.
04:23I have no interest in hiding that from you.
04:25We got a slightly lower inflation number for February.
04:29That's great.
04:30I have no interest in hiding that from you.
04:32We will follow the facts.
04:35Egg price futures down a little bit.
04:37Inflation ticking down after ticking up.
04:40Stock market absolute and total fiasco just for kicks, because every day that we do the
04:45show, I look and it's down hundreds of points.
04:47Let's see where we are.
04:48And there we are.
04:50The Dow down another another 300 points today.
04:56That's where we are.
04:58Quick break.
04:59Back after this.
