  • Resumen

  • Forty years ago, I was just another aspiring journalist submitting my master's thesis at Columbia, never imagining that I'd share an anniversary with Donald Trump. Back then, Trump was a rising real estate developer and an unexpected advocate for American workers, voicing concerns about jobs vanishing overseas. His warning of a "huge sucking sound" resonated with my own exploration of job loss in New York City's garment district, a subject close to my heart, given my family's immigrant roots. This episode takes you through my journey from a corporate lawyer to a truth-seeking journalist, all while navigating the shifting tides of America's economic landscape.

    Join us as we untangle the complex web of politics, economics, and social changes that have reshaped American manufacturing and the middle class. Our conversation highlights the stories of immigrant communities who built their lives and industries in the U.S., only to face the realities of offshoring and global competition. From a chance encounter with Trump and his unexpected support for Vietnam veterans to the broader implications of trade policies, we offer historical insights and personal anecdotes that reveal the far-reaching impacts of these economic shifts. Listen in to understand how these transformative events have left lasting marks on our present and what they mean for the future of American industry.
