but they might have it up later since this was just aired yesterday.

Most of the article was discussing the Mexico (and Brazil) tariffs, including remarks by Mexico's President, 45, and WH Economic Council Director Hassett, with a few other quotes from Gonzales mixed in. It appears the angle was to note that TX obviously hosts trade routes between the U.S. & Mexico (thus having Gonzales add comments since he is a Rep. there), knowing that the state voted for 45.

The line I quoted was the very last sentence before the CNN segment ended.
