Kevin Hassett swoons over more than 300,000 "high-paying" jobs that are "gone forever." [View all]
Seriously...HOW MUCH ADDITIONAL INCENTIVE do Americans need to VOTE in NOVEMBER?
Asked by anchor Maria Bartiromo about the administrations efforts to cut government spending, National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said it had made a huge amount of progress.
I think the biggest thing that we can point to is that weve cut government employment by 300,000 workers, he said. Those are jobs that are very high-paying that are gone forever.
+He claimed the cuts reduced government spending by an unthinkable amount of money, perhaps $1 trillion over the next ten years.
He also said that the administration reduced the deficit last year by $600 billion through a combination of higher-than-expected economic growth, tariff revenues, and supply side effects of Trumps massive tax cut, which mostly benefited the wealthiest Americans while gutting the social safety net.
