As President Trump has rolled out his economic agenda, the
assumption has been that he would quickly scale back his most
aggressive policies once they began to scare consumers and the
financial markets. But that assumption turned out to be wrong.

Ben Casselman, who covers economics, and Maggie Haberman, who
covers the White House, explain why Mr. Trump’s economic plan may
be backfiring and why he doesn’t seem to mind.

Guest:

Ben Casselman, the chief economics
correspondent for The New York Times.

Maggie Haberman, a White House correspondent
for The New York Times.

Background reading:

Mr. Trump has said a recession might be worth the cost.
Economists disagree.

Investors thought they had Mr. Trump figured out. They were
wrong.
