Coming up on Washington Week with The Atlantic:

Trump’s Tariffs Turmoil

President Trump’s sweeping tariffs hit countries across the world, baffling friends and foes alike and forcing global leaders and markets to reckon with the fallout from America’s dramatic shift in international trade policy. Some countries are preparing to retaliate, and others are pressing for further negotiations. Meanwhile, economists warn the tariffs will raise costs and the risk of a recession.

Joining editor in chief of The Atlantic and moderator, Jeffrey Goldberg, to discuss this and more: 

  • Stephen Hayes, Editor, The Dispatch 
  • David Leonhardt, Director, The New York Times Editorial Board
  • Kayla Tausche, Senior White House Correspondent, CNN 
  • Nancy Youssef, National Security Correspondent, The Wall Street Journal

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, the Yuen Foundation, Sandra and Carl DeLay-Magnuson, Rose Hirschel and Andy Shreeves, Robert and Susan Rosenbaum, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and PBS.
