As President Donald Trump approaches the one-year anniversary of his second time period in workplace, the FT’s chief economics commentator Martin Wolf, and Nobel prize-winning economist Paul Krugman sit down to debate the US economic system and the state of American democracy. Are American shoppers lastly feeling the impact of Trump’s tariffs? Is AI responsible for the frozen labour market? Or is the spectre of a weakening democracy and plutocracy responsible for slumping shopper sentiment? In the primary of 4 weekly episodes, Wolf and Krugman unpick the US and world economic system, with Krugman explaining why he’s much less pessimistic now than he was earlier this 12 months
