Trump’s tariff tantrum – “Monumentally bruising to the global economy”

  • Summary

  • Liberation Day? More like Liquidation Day. Trump’s malicious and ignorant tariff package has horrified the worlds of business and economics. What does it all mean? Did Britain really get off “lightly” as the Trump fanboys claim? Dmitry Grozoubinski – director of ExplainTrade and author of Why Politicians Lie About Trade – talks Andrew Harrison through the wrongheaded tactics, fantasy maths and tatty showmanship of what The Economist calls “the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era.” • Buy Why Politicians Lie About Trade through our affiliate bookshop and you’ll help fund The Bunker by earning us a small commission for every sale.
