Matt Goodman, former White House National Security Council official and now the director of the RealEcon Initiative at the Council on Foreign Relations, discusses Trump's tariffs and manufacturing policies and their impact on East Asian nations. In this episode of DC Insiders, with our host Wenchi Yu, Goodman expressed skepticism about the effectiveness of broad-based, heavy tariffs in revitalizing U.S. manufacturing. He also voiced concerns about potential erosion of global investor confidence in U.S. bonds and the U.S. dollar.
