BREAKING: Scott Bessent Has the Perfect Response to Kristen Welker When Baited Into Condemning President Trump’s Celebration of Robert Mueller’s Death (Video)
You know that satisfying moment when a top Trump official refuses to play the left’s gotcha game and instead delivers a raw, unapologetic defense of the President? That’s exactly what happened when Scott Bessent shut down Kristen Welker on live television.
Welker tried to bait Bessent into condemning President Trump for celebrating the death of Robert Mueller — the man who led the corrupt Russia witch hunt that tormented Trump and his family for years. Bessent didn’t flinch. He looked her straight in the eye and fired back with the truth:
“Given what was done to Trump and his family, it’s impossible to understand what he went through.”
“I think we should have a little empathy for what has been done to Trump and his family.”
“I watched the look in his eye. Neither one of us can understand what has been done to him and his family.”
Boom. No groveling, no fake outrage, no playing along with the media’s narrative. Just straight facts about the hell Mueller’s witch hunt put the Trump family through.
Video:
This is the same Robert Mueller whose team leaked, lied, and weaponized the justice system against a duly elected President. The same Mueller who spent millions of taxpayer dollars chasing a hoax while ignoring real crimes. Trump has every right to feel the way he does — and Bessent just reminded the country why.
The left and their media allies want everyone to pretend Mueller was some noble public servant. Bessent said no — we’re not doing that anymore. The American people watched the Russia hoax destroy lives and divide the nation. They remember the pain it caused Trump’s family. Empathy for the victims of that witch hunt is long overdue.
Patriots are cheering this response because it’s exactly what we need: strong, loyal voices around Trump who refuse to apologize for telling the truth. The deep state tried to destroy him. Trump survived. Now the country is healing — and the media can’t stand it.
Bessent nailed it. No more fake condolences for the architects of the greatest political scandal in American history.

Mark Van der Veen offers some of the most analytical and insightful writings on politics. He regularly opines on the motives and political calculations of politicians and candidates, and whether or not their strategy will work. Van der Veen offers a contrast to many on this list by sticking mainly to a fact-based style of writing that is generally combative with opposing ideologies.
Thank you Mr. Bessent for providing some common sense to the MSM, who by the way, celebrated an assassination of a political journalist just 7 months ago.!
they all cheered when kirk got it, now want to shed crocodile tears when this garbage bag finally turns into fly sh%t? good riddance.
