Cost-Benefit Analysis: Trump Enriches Billionaires, Bleeds Consumers Amid Tariff Reversal

Jen Psaki breaks down the disparate impact of Donald Trump's on-again, off-again tariffs, revealing how the wealthy capitalized on the president's stock tip hours before he announced a big reversal on his tariffs this week. Kentucky's Governor Andy Beshear joins to discuss the real world implications of Trump's unpredictable and inconsistent economic policies, which are set to blow a "huge hole" in family budgets. Next, Jen is joined by Rep. Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico and former White House Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri to talk about the Republican's budget proposal, which puts Medicaid in the crosshairs. Jen also examines Donald Trump's stunning interpretation of a Supreme Court ruling requiring the return a Maryland father who was mistakenly sent to El Salvador by the Trump administration and wrongfully imprisoned. Finally, Andrew Weissmann joins to discuss how Donald Trump is using the presidency to extort nearly a billion dollars-worth of free legal services from private law firms.
