Is Obama The Voice of Today’s Democratic Party?
Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss Former President Barrack Obama’s recent appearance at Hamilton College where he criticized the Trump Administration, and Kamala Harris’ speech on Trump’s policies where she told the audience, “I told you so”. They also talk about the market reaction to Trump’s tariffs. Amid growing calls for the president to negotiate lower trade barriers with allies and partners, will the Administration stand firm on across-the-board tariffs? Plus, they chat about the two women who will likely vie for the governorship of Virginia this fall, and whether the race tells us anything about what to expect in the 2028 midterms. Then finally, Tom Bevan talks to RCP contributor Richard Porter about Trump’s authority over trade policy, and the politics driving Trump on tariffs.
