Catherine Rampell: Trump’s Tariffmageddon

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.thebulwark.com

The White House is pumping out a lot of happy talk about countries wanting to make deals over the tariffs, but the tumult Trump has created has spread to the bond market. And that may be a sign that he has people so spooked about the U.S. economy that our Treasuries are no longer seen as a safe bet. Meanwhile, China has a lot of leverage here and may be using it.

Plus, the Democrats' candidate recruiter for the midterms, Colorado's Jason Crow, discusses how to win back working class voters.

Catherine Rampell and Rep. Jason Crow join Tim Miller.
