An amazing display of total economic ignorance

ICYMI: “An amazing display of total economic ignorance yesterday in Chicago,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle about former President Donald Trump’s interview with Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait before the Economic Club of Chicago, where the 2024 Republican nominee defended his protectionist trade policies and other fiscal proposals. “If you ran the interview that Kamala Harris did yesterday and then run the interview that Donald Trump just did yesterday with John Micklethwait at the Chicago Board of Economics, you’d be stunned at the difference between the two in terms of competence, in terms of leadership, in terms of what you know about today’s economy.”
