Summary

Is this America's Brexit? Robert and Steph explain why Trump's pause on the more extreme tariffs isn't a return to free trade and why the economic war between China and the US is like a nuclear one. Will anyone benefit or is it all bad news? Could the UK be in for cheaper prices? One big uncertainty is what Trump plans for the big drug companies. Steph and Robert dive in.
