Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks joins The Winston Marshall Show to rip into Trump’s China tariffs—and the bipartisan rot at the heart of American politics.
He slams the MAGA trade war as clumsy and counterproductive, arguing that broad-brush tariffs will backfire economically and geopolitically. Uygur calls instead for smart, targeted industrial policy—and a higher minimum wage to lift up working Americans.
With trademark fire, Cenk torches corporate capture in both parties, hails economic populists like Ro Khanna and Greg Casar, and urges the left to drop the culture wars and focus on kitchen-table issues: wages, drug prices, and inequality.
All this—populism left and right, Trump’s economic fallout, and the future of honest politics in an era of tribal madness… #trump #tariffs #politics

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
