Listen "Justin Wolfers: Tariffs, Trade, and the Price of Incoherence"
Episode Synopsis
Economist Justin Wolfers joins Charlie Sykes to discuss Trump’s trade war revival, incoherent economic policymaking, and the human cost of political decisions. From tariffs on allies to Medicaid cuts in the latest budget, Wolfers breaks down the real-world impact with clarity, passion, and biting analogies. It’s a crash course in economics—and a warning about what happens when the rules of the game no longer apply. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
