Statement: Yesterday in a series of questions regarding the bond market for Trump regarding Bessent’s economic interventions, Trump claimed that he did not ask for Bessent to do so but praised him for such. When reporters told Trump that yields were up again and asked if he would ask for another intervention, Trump said that he is considering using the military to control bond markets.

This admits of such stupidity I don’t even know what he thinks he’s getting at. Does he want to force foreign countries to buy our debt? If so, does he know most bonds are held domestically?
