How do trade policies made in Washington ripple across oceans and affect everyday lives around the world? What happens when a government decides to impose sweeping tariffs—not just on one rival, but on multiple countries at once? In this discussion, we’ll take a deep, critical look at the tariffs introduced by the Trump administration, with a special focus on China. Damon, an American who has lived in China and now broadcasts live from Seattle, will guide us through the bigger picture—how these policies shape global trade, influence economic relationships, and set the stage for international tensions that affect everything from the cost of your phone to the price of your groceries._x000D_

Together, we’ll explore how these tariffs have impacted industries both big and small, shifted the fortunes of average Americans, and changed the dynamics between the U.S. and the countries it does business with. Damon will share insights on how most Americans perceive these policies, peeling back the layers of political spin to uncover the economic and human realities behind them. This is your chance to better understand how economic nationalism plays out in a globalized world—and to connect the dots between policy decisions and the headlines shaping our future._x000D_
