Trump Cabinet To Tour Country Selling Economy Like Used Car on Fire
KEY POINTS
- •Trump’s team met Thursday to devise a plan for Cabinet members to promote economic efforts nationwide ahead of November.
- •The initiative focuses on highlighting last year's tax and spending bill that cut taxes on tips and overtime pay.
- •Officials like Susie Wiles and Tony Fabrizio aim to use podcasts and other alternative platforms to reach voters.
In a Trump-era magic trick worthy of a backstage carnival, late Thursday saw Susie Wiles, James Blair, Meghan Bauer, and the merry band of spin doctors Tony Fabrizio, Richard Walters, and Tim Saler plotting a nationwide economic pep rally. Their mission: convince America that skyrocketing gas prices courtesy of 'Iran drama' plus the stock market's worst day since the conflict started last month are no big deal. The Cabinet will trumpet last year's 'big, beautiful' tax law, which cleverly trims taxes on overtime and tips—as if extra paycheck crumbs can grease an economic engine stalled by war fears. Oh, and podcasts? They're now official government propaganda platforms. All this ahead of election season while Democrats wave their recent wins like a victory flag over Mar-a-Lago.

Trump’s solution to an economy tanking post-Iran war? Giving Cabinet members microphones and hoping podcasts fix inflation like they fix everything else.
Nothing screams crisis management like a meeting to plan a propaganda tour touting tax breaks on tips while gas prices do the cha-cha up the charts.
