With tariffs dominating our lives, The People’s Cabinet drops a special pre-launch episode featuring former Chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers Jared Bernstein.

In less than 20 minutes, Jared explains:

  • What tariffs actually are 
  • What a “reciprocal tariff” means
  • Why Trump’s trade policy could backfire
  • How we build a thoughtful trade policy that helps Americans 
  • How Democrats can engage disaffected and MAGA-aligned voters without losing the plot
