Our hosts paint a vivid picture of the economic anxieties facing Americans today—from plummeting 401(k) values to the instability triggered by trade tensions. And we’ll explore Trump’s erratic, inward-looking trade strategy, which contradicts basic Republican values and provoked immediate backlash from economies around the world. 


We’ll examine the Republican Party’s internal struggles, as they contend with the fallout from Trump’s mayhem. The team also takes a hard look at Democrats’ tactical missteps, and urges the Party to take ownership of the progressive economic policies that truly resonate with voters. 


The hosts tackle the unsettling rise of nationalism in the US, and consider how demographic shifts have paved the way for such a dramatic political realignment. And you’ll hear how the interwoven narratives of these political maneuvers created an urgent need for vigilance against authoritarianism. 


As the market suffers another day in turmoil, we encourage our listeners to remain engaged, and to see this chaos as an opportunity to create lasting change.
