Summary
Author David Enrich has written a new and carefully researched book on Trump's finances, and the man's ties to oligarchs via huge Deutsche Bank loans that bailed out his failed businesses. Thom welcomes the author, and reads from his book 'Dark Towers: Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump and an Epic Trail of Destruction'.
And, economist Richard Wolff considers how and when the seemingly endless inflation of debt might end for the American economy...
Plus, Thomas Palley, economist and co-editor of Keynesian Economics, on why the economy should welcome, not fear Bernie Sanders and a return to New Deal Keynesianism.
