Episode notes
Tariffs and the Working Class
- Trump's tariffs aim to address long-term economic issues like trade deficits and wage stagnation.
- The stock market's negative reaction reflects the interests of the wealthy elite, not the working class.
Communication Strategy for Trump
- Trump should adopt a more tragic tone when discussing tariffs, emphasizing the necessity and long-term benefits.
- He should focus on reciprocity, aiming for zero tariffs or matching tariffs with trading partners.
China's Vulnerability
- China's vulnerability in trade wars stems from its dependence on mercantilism and American magnanimity.
- Trump has additional leverage over China, such as restricting student visas and land purchases.
