Speaker 1

Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. A single best idea. What a conversation with Peter Navarro. He and I have known each other for decades. He put out a book and I think it was in nineteen ninety four that was earthshaking, a really aggressive book about US Chinese relationships, which began his career of trade in China. This is a professor at the University of California at Irvine. The way I construct these interviews is understanding that I'm not

the expert. I went to our Eric Wasson writing with Alicia Diaz, but Eric Wasson This Morning and Josh Wingrove covering the White House, and they gave me immediate perspective on the emotion of the politics in this crazy news flow we're having on tariffs, on NAFTA and all that followed it, and on trade.

We looked at Lansing, Michigan's congressional district with two GM factories there as well. And then at one point Paul Sweeney said, Hey, Peter Navarro, what about credit card Rates's.

Speaker 3

Listen, Jamie Diamond, lower your freaking credit card interest rates. You are a criminal the way you charge the American people at twenty two, twenty five and thirty percent, and the President wants you to lower that. So until Jamie, until you do that, please refrain from commenting on our public policy.

Speaker 1

We have to have James Diamond on tomorrow to rebuff the comments of doctor at Navarro on podcasts at the Mississippi River. We're there on Apple Music, on Spotify, on YouTube podcasts as well. It's single best idea
