On this episode of Voternomics, we discuss former US President Donald Trump’s self-proclaimed favorite word: tariffs. While mainstream economists warn that hiking taxes on certain imports is bad for business, not everyone appears to be of the same mind. That became evident last week during Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait’s interview of Trump before the Economic Club of Chicago. The crowd’s enthusiastic reaction to the Republican presidential candidate’s talk of tariffs suggested that many of America’s Midwest businesspeople might take a different view.

Hosts Stephanie Flanders, Adrian Wooldridge and Allegra Stratton discuss the roots of Trump’s love of tariffs with Micklethwait himself and consider whether an “America First” approach could win short-term gains for some parts of the US economy, even if it undermines global trade and weakens America’s global standing in the long-term.

Centrist politics is doing it wrong, Michael Ignatieff says. He would know: In 2011 he led Canada's Liberal Party to a historic defeat -- a "painful" experience he discusses with hosts Allegra Stratton and Adrian Wooldridge.

Now a professor of history and a former president of the Central European University, Ignatieff reflects on what he did wrong, including failing to respond to the 2008 financial crisis.
