Former Obama economic adviser Robert Wolf forcefully shut down a Fox News host and conservative economist Stephen Moore after they lavished praise on Donald Trump’s economy without, Wolf argued, any grounding in reality. Cutting through repeated interruptions and attempts to pin current problems on Joe Biden, Wolf pointed to hard data showing manufacturing jobs down nearly 100,000 over the past year and warned that Trump’s tariff strategy is backfiring on U.S. consumers and businesses. As Moore tried to shift the discussion to stock market gains, Wolf snapped back that tariffs function as a consumer tax — a point Moore himself has previously acknowledged — accusing Fox of “gaslighting” Americans while glossing over the real economic costs of Trump’s policies.
