Bessent Addresses Trade Talks, Inflation, and Government Shutdown in Meet the Press Interview

Scott Bessent has been making headlines recently as the Secretary of the Treasury. He appeared in an interview with Meet the Press, where he discussed ongoing trade negotiations with China. Bessent indicated that China is prepared to reach a deal to avoid the imposition of harsher tariffs by the United States. This comes after two days of negotiations, which have laid the groundwork for discussions between President Trump and President Xi of China. The tariffs were threatened in response to China's plan to restrict rare earth minerals.

Bessent also addressed inflation in the United States, noting that while certain grocery prices have risen, overall inflation has decreased since President Trump took office. He pointed out that core inflation was at 2%, the lowest in a long time, and rents are coming down.

Additionally, Bessent mentioned the impact of the government situation on the economy, urging moderate Democratic senators to reopen the government.
