It has been over a week since Election Day and President-elect Donald Trump is charging full speed ahead as he begins to build his new administration. From appointing new and unexpected members to his Cabinet and creating a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead, the president-elect has kept himself at the top of the news. What does this all mean for your bottom line? We get into it.

In this week’s episode of Capitol Gains, anchor Rachelle Akuffo, Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul, and senior columnist Rick Newman break down the latest in the Trump 2.0 administration, from the president-elect’s relationship with Elon Musk and how it could impact the government, to the future of EV tax credits, and so more.

Plus, Puck News Founding Partner, William D. Cohan joins the show to break all of this down further and provide additional insight on how the markets could react to Trump’s tariffs.
