Trade War Will Be a ‘Colossal Blunder’ For U.S.

Richard Wolff on the Socialist Program

On this episode of The Socialist Program, Richard Wolff joins Brian Becker to unpack the deepening U.S.-China trade war and its global fallout. They examine how Trump’s tariffs are disrupting global markets while failing to pressure China, whose broader alliances and export strategies blunt the impact. The conversation also touches on elite universities, like Harvard, resisting political pressure, and the broader implications for the relationship between academia, the state, and capitalism.
