Treasury Secretary Mnuchin Press Conference: Powerful sanctions for Turkey

CTH: Earlier today Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin held a press conference at the White House to announce a new executive order constructed by the Trump administration that would deliver economic sanctions due to Turkish activity in Northern Syria.

“These are very powerful sanctions. We hope we don’t have to use them. But we can shut down the Turkish economy if we need to,” Treasury Secretary Mnuchin tells reporters. more

SNIP: The pin is still in the grenade, but let’s hope Trump’s aim is good. 😉

  1. I could listen to Mnuchin all day long. Him and Mulvaney. And Kudlow and Ross. And Navarro. Especially Navarro; he’s a barracuda, a killer. It’s economy porn. So swoon-y to have cabinet and senior advisor guys who actually know their subjects and have the right to call their portfolios “portfolios.”

    (Can I say that? 😉 )

  2. remember: the Turks are trying to oust the Kurds on the northern border of Syria because the group of Kurds in that area are Commies …
    “…the Kurds we have backed, led by the YPG (People’s Protection Units), are the Syrian branch of the PKK (the Kurdistan Worker’s Party) in Turkey [italics mine]. The PKK is a militant separatist organization with Marxist-Leninist roots.”

  3. How many here would just love to give anyone of P.Trumps economic advisers $1,000.00 each and say do what want with it and let it lay for five years, and then see what it is worth in the end.
