Robert Lighthizer, former U.S. Trade Representative from 2017-2021 and author of No Trade Is Free: Changing Course, Taking on China, and Helping America's Workers, joins The Realignment. Robert and Marshall discuss his experience negotiating trade deals with Japan and China in the Reagan and Trump administrations, why the working-class should be at the center of trade policy, the origins of the 2023 manufacturing boom, and the degree to which geopolitical concerns should shape the trade agenda.
