Contribute to Politicology at politicology.com/donate To unlock Politicology+ visit politicology.com/plus This week, Ron Steslow and Liam Donovan (Principal at Bracewell LLP) discuss the tariff rollercoaster, the “new right” economic theory driving them, and why the Trump administration cares a lot less about the stock market than in his first term. Then, we discuss why we’re engaged in full-throttle economic warfare with China. Finally, we head to Politicology+ where we discuss how the uncertainty around tariffs is impacting business and how tariffs breed cronyism.  Segments this week: (07:44) The “new right” (37:42) Economic warfare Not yet a Politicology+ member?
