Love it. : )
“What I said about them being directly responsible for rising prices, they did not argue with that. They did not deny that tariffs were contributing to higher costs per family. They didn’t say anything about that. I accused this administration, based on the facts, that they were engaging in unprecedented levels of corruption, they didn’t say anything about that. The president wasn’t even mad about the Saddam Hussein comparison. That part didn’t bother him. But he was very upset about the Cheesecake Factory comments. He took great umbrage. He said I didn’t understand the work of the artisans in the White House.
And they mobilized — it’s all crazy, but this is the crazy part — they mobilized a whole government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke. The White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury. This is the man who is in charge of the economy. The person who’s supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable. The guy who’s supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation. And reduce interest rates. They told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory.”
