Episode notes

With Donald Trump’s ongoing trade wars, the markets have been rattled. Tariffs come and go, but uncertainty remains. As for the American people, who were promised cheaper every day items, are they seeing more money in their pockets? Will eggs ever be a normal price again? And if not, are voter’s ready to grin and bear short term financial pain? 


Rohan Venkat, Tom Hamilton and Emily Tamkin discuss.
