NAVARRO: “I think it’s — I think it‘s somewhat callous to tell to people — to tell people who live paycheck to paycheck, ‘You can endure a little short-term pain.’ There are people in this world who aren‘t billionaires, you know, people who aren‘t represented maybe in this cabinet and this administration as much. Look, I think what you are seeing is a response to the chaos and uncertainty. What Donald Trump is doing with these announced trade wars, what he‘s doing with tariffs, it‘s almost comical if it didn‘t have an economic effect. It‘s like, you know, he puts the tariff in, he puts the tariff out. He puts the tariff in, he puts the tariff out. Then he does the hokey pokey and he turns us all around. It is absolutely insane and it is playing — it‘s also affecting American psyche. It‘s affecting consumer confidence. If people don‘t spend as much, people are scared. They feel uncertain. They are nervous. They‘re looking at the numbers. If you are a state worker with your pension fund and you‘re looking at these numbers, you are nervous because you‘re depending on that.”
