What Will Trump’s Economic Plan Mean for American Wallets? | Amanpour and Company

The economy was a key issue for American voters. Trump has promised to make incomes “soar” and make the cost of living “come tumbling down.” But economists — like Financial Times global business columnist Rana Foroohar — aren't convinced. Foroohar says that Trump's plans for deregulation, tax cuts and tariffs will likely bring an economic downturn. She joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss the practicalities of the Trump agenda.
