This guy is good! #JustinWolfers

TheWeekend on MSnow, Nov 29, 2025 Justin Wolfers, University of Michigan Economic professor (he is my FAVORITE economist) Is trump telling the truth about the economy? I gotta tell you, I feel like my kids don't even lie that often. I just feel disappointment... and a certain sadness, at this point. This is just nonsense. So, let me start with one important factcheck. The president appears not to understand the difference between millions... billions... and trillions... that's actually one of the most important points in all of economics. They're massively different. We are not taking in trillions of dollars in tariff revenue. If we were, we could afford his $2000 tariff checks. We aren't. So therefore, we can't! The other thing that he talks about a lot is the stock market. Now here's a funny thing... if you look at the stock market returns, from say 25 of the biggest countries around the world, the United States ranks round about 22nd right now. So yes, American stocks are up, but guess what... they're up EVEN MORE everywhere else!

“The president appears not to understand the difference between millions… billions… and trillions… that’s actually one of the most important points in all of economics.”

‘We’ve put the blindfolds on’: Economist warns of dire economic path under Trump

Australian economist Justin Wolfers has issued a dire warning on the direction of the U.S. economy under Don The Con, equating the administration’s freeze on releasing key economic data to steering a ship through fog wearing “blindfolds.”

Wow, what a fantastic podcast! Let plot twist pivot from tariffs to AI ownership was fantastic.

I only wished they had skipped the 10 min banter intro, because this one needed two hours more.

Economist Justin Wolfers: Trump’s Steel Tariffs Will Destroy U.S. Manufacturing (Again)

University of Michigan economist Justin Wolfers explains why Donald Trump’s new steel tariffs will backfire—hurting U.S. manufacturing far more than helping it.

Economics Professor Utterly Shreds Trump’s Trade Chaos In 5 Seconds Flat University of Michigan's Justin Wolfers also warned why "everything we buy is at risk."

Justin Wolfers, a University of Michigan economics professor, says that both families and businesses are “frozen in place,” unable to plan budgets or make purchasing decisions amid The Con's tariff uncertainty.

real income is what we’re trying to build. To build the spending power of American households… and so in that example, he just said the real income of American households; your spending power; your material well-being; is going to fall. You know when we see real income fall, we call that a recession. In fact, the example Trump just gave us… would represent a decline in real income of 94%, which would be a depression. It’s fine for a billionaire to joke about this, and maybe he doesn’t care. Some of us have kids, and even those of us who don’t have kids, realize the same forces that make plastic from China more expensive, also make machinery for manufacturing phones just as expensive; and you wouldn’t see the president say, “you’re gonna have to make do with two machines instead of 30!” This is economic vandalism, and he’s harming people‘s quality of life, and it’s all a joke for him… “It’s all made in China.” If your kid loves them, I don’t care where they’re made.
