Far-left “Face the Nation” Host Margaret Brennan, who infamously grew to become a meme in January after getting humiliated by Vice-President JD Vance, face-planted as soon as once more on Sunday after making an attempt to mock the Trump Administration on worldwide commerce.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Donald Trump introduced on Wednesday the implementation of a ten% baseline tariff on all imports, efficient April 5, 2025. The worst offenders will likely be hit with even more durable measures on April 9.
Talking from the White Home Rose Backyard, President Trump proclaimed April 2 as “Liberation Day,” marking a brand new period of financial independence. He emphasised that this measure is crucial to guard American jobs and revitalize home manufacturing.
The White Home additionally launched an in depth chart exhibiting how badly many international locations have been ripping off American employees, charging excessive tariffs on U.S. items whereas benefiting from America’s generosity in return.
Brennan introduced on Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to supposedly talk about his ideas on the tariffs, primarily how they calculated how a lot every nation would face in reciprocal tariffs. However she as a substitute tried to embarrass him with an asinine accusation as a substitute.
“After we noticed the President within the Rose Backyard holding up that chart you helped make, that wasn’t really tariffs,” she stated. “That was really complicated to buyers as a result of it was some sort of method, and the international locations themselves appeared sort of random.”
“Why are the Heard Island and McDonald Islands, which don’t export to the US…Why do they face a ten% tariff? Did you employ AI to generate this?” She requested.
Synthetic intelligence? Does she significantly suppose an administration filled with extremely profitable businessmen like Trump and Lutnick is that careless?
Lutnick laughed off Brennan’s foolish comment and gave her a helpful financial lesson.
“No!” Lutnick stated. “The concept is…When you depart something off the listing, the international locations that attempt to principally arbitrage America undergo these international locations to us.”
“The president put tariffs on China in 2018, and what China began doing is that they began going by means of different international locations to America,” he added. “They simply (handed merchandise) by means of different international locations to America.”
Lutnick added that Trump was fed up with this loophole and knew precisely what have to be executed to unravel the dishonest.

“So, the president is aware of that; he’s uninterested in it, and so he’s going to repair that. “He principally stated, ‘Look, I can’t let any a part of the world be a spot the place China and different international locations can ship by means of them.’”
“So, he ended these ridiculous loopholes, and now what he’s making an attempt to say is ‘I’m going to repair the commerce deficit of the USA. It’s a nationwide safety difficulty…We’d like the greatness of America to truly be inbuilt America.”
