Gertz remarked, “You can nearly detect the growing desperation in her tone.” He continued, “Maria Bartiromo is quite a fervent supporter of Trump. Initially known for her robust work as a financial journalist, she aligned closely with both the movement and Trump himself during his ascent. She has become his preferred choice when discussing economic matters; they even had an interview earlier this month. It seems like she’s attempted to use her platform to caution Trump that his actions might lead to significant repercussions, urging him to rethink his approach to the economy before things escalate further.”
