About this listen

Paul Brandus explores the implications of President Trump's newly announced tariffs set to roll out on April 2nd, 2025. The discussion delves into the president's vision for a revitalized American industry and the potential economic impacts, including concerns from economists and business leaders regarding inflation, job losses, and a slowing economy. We analyze Trump’s targets for tariffs, which span a diverse range of countries, and the rationale behind these policies. The episode also reflects on past promises made during Trump's first campaign regarding trade deficits and national debt, juxtaposed with the reality of an increased national debt during his first term. Additionally, we address Trump's shifting narrative, linking tariffs to issues of drug trafficking and illegal immigration, particularly concerning China, Canada, and Mexico. Join us as we unpack the complexities of this significant economic strategy and its potential consequences for the future.
