Pocketbook Politics: When Tariffs & Shutdowns Hit Home Episode Summary
Update: 2025-10-21
Description
Prices don’t spike overnight, but they do spike. Bernie and Jesse connect the dots from tariffs and shutdown turbulence to the delayed price hikes that land in your cart months later. They outline how supply chains absorb shocks…until they can’t, and why unemployment, higher costs, and frozen programs show up on Main Street long after political theater fades. The duo also spot the moment when party loyalty cracks: when supporters feel it in their own wallets. That’s when phone lines light up, positions soften, and “no” turns into “let’s talk.” It’s a candid, concrete look at cause and effect, minus the spin. If you want to see around corners (and protect your budget), this is your playbook. Listen and share to help someone you love prepare, not panic.
