Donald Trump is more than 100 days into his second term, and the U.S.-China trade war is still on-going. In this episode of Let’s Just Talk, host Hammi is joined by Brown University political economist Dr. Mark Blyth to break down the high-stakes economic clash—examining the fallout from Trump’s sweeping tariffs, rising inflation, and what it all means for the global balance of power and everyday Americans.

We explore:

What Trump’s tariffs actually mean for American consumers and workers

Whether U.S. manufacturing jobs can ever come back Is “decoupling” from China possible

The rise of BRICS and China's strategy to challenge the U.S. dollar

What Blyth said two years ago—and whether it still holds true today

If you care about global economics, the future of American labor, or how trade wars impact your wallet, this is a must-listen.
