Those Tariffs Slap

from The Gist Hosted by Peach Fish Productions

Trump's latest tariff escalation on China, Mexico, and Canada has earned the Wall Street Journal's bluntest critique yet: "dumbest." With markets reacting sharply, Wall Street remains the one force that might actually make him reconsider. Plus, Brenda Wineapple, author of Keeping the Faith: How American Democracy Survives Scandals, Scoundrels, and Cynics, joins to discuss a century-old "trial of the century" and its relevance to today's politics.
