Tho Bishop joins Dinesh D’Souza for a conversation on Trump’s economic policies, the reality of tariffs, and how Washington elites have rebranded managed trade as “free trade.” They also discuss how inflation disproportionately harms the working class while enriching those closest to the money printers.

Are tariffs a betrayal of free market principles, or could they be used as a tool against global economic manipulation? And why do mainstream economists ignore the biggest force distorting markets—the Federal Reserve? Tune in for a discussion that challenges economic orthodoxy and exposes how America’s economy has been rigged for decades.

The original episode, “The Trump Reset” (Dinesh D’Souza Podcast, Ep. 1039), is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJEr1CfLZfg

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard.

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
