Floundering in a Crisis: Trump and Hoover

This one is a blast from the past! In preparation for our final episode of the season, the A Nazi on Wall Street Podcast crew wanted to share with you an early recording made at near the beginning of 2021. In this episode, Dr. Jay Weixelbaum and EJ Russo compare the Trump administration of 2020 with the Herbert Hoover administration. In both cases there was a spiraling crisis, which was met by mostly ineffective, haphazard action. With some hindsight, we can see just how important steady leadership is when things get chaotic in the face of a serious problem, such as a depression or a pandemic. You'll want to tune in for this one, if only to see how Jay and EJ manage to incorporate fluffernutter sandwiches into the discussion. See you there!
