Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. A single best idea.
Speaker 1: What a conversation with Peter Navarro. He and I have
Speaker 1: known each other for decades. He put out a book
Speaker 1: and I think it was in nineteen ninety four that
Speaker 1: was earthshaking, a really aggressive book about US Chinese relationships,
Speaker 1: which began his career of trade in China. This is
Speaker 1: a professor at the University of California at Irvine. The
Speaker 1: way I construct these interviews is understanding that I'm not
Speaker 1: the expert. I went to our Eric Wasson writing with
Speaker 1: Alicia Diaz, but Eric Wasson This Morning and Josh Wingrove
Speaker 1: covering the White House, and they gave me immediate perspective
Speaker 1: on the emotion of the politics in this crazy news
Speaker 1: flow we're having on tariffs, on NAFTA and all that
Speaker 1: followed it, and on trade. Here is Peter Navarro on
Speaker 1: the future of what years ago we knew as an AFTA.
Speaker 2: USMCA has some significant flaws in it, and it's going
Speaker 2: to be reevaluated in July. The great Jamison Greer, or
Speaker 2: US trade representative will be taking the lean on that.
Speaker 2: But nothing ever happens in the White House without the
Speaker 2: commander in chief, particularly on trade. So as the Boss says,
Speaker 2: let's see what happens.
Speaker 1: They are the politics of NEFTA of Mexico and Canada
Speaker 1: and the United States, lots of discussion. We looked at
Speaker 1: the first Congressional district of Iowa, out I eighty across
Speaker 1: the river to Davenport. We looked at Lansing, Michigan's congressional
Speaker 1: district with two GM factories there as well. And then
Speaker 1: at one point Paul Sweeney said, Hey, Peter Navarro, what
Speaker 1: about credit card Rates's.
Speaker 3: Listen, Jamie Diamond, lower your freaking credit card interest rates.
Speaker 3: You are a criminal the way you charge the American
Speaker 3: people at twenty two, twenty five and thirty percent, and
Speaker 3: the President wants you to lower that. So until Jamie,
Speaker 3: until you do that, please refrain from commenting on our
Speaker 3: public policy.
Speaker 1: We have to have James Diamond on tomorrow to rebuff
Speaker 1: the comments of doctor at Navarro on podcasts at the
Speaker 1: Mississippi River. We're there on Apple Music, on Spotify, on
Speaker 1: YouTube podcasts as well. It's single best idea
