Episode description

Can Trump's trade policies and US protectionism bring economic gains to the middle and working class?

On this episode we hear from two people with vastly different perspectives:  President Biden's former economic advisor Jared Bernstein, and American Compass Executive Director Oren Cass, whose thinking on these issues have influenced a number of younger Republican politicians such as Tom Cotton, Josh Hawley and most importantly, Vice President J.D. Vance.
