Economic Consequences of Trump’s Potential Return and Sheinbaum’s Stance on Violence

In this episode, we analyze the potential economic implications of a second Donald Trump presidency, as warned by Scotiabank economist Derek Holt. We discuss the risks of protectionism, demographic shifts, and fiscal irresponsibility. Additionally, we examine Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum's rejection of the idea that violence impacts Mexico's economy, despite IMF warnings. This episode provides critical insights into how political decisions in the U.S. and Mexico can shape economic landscapes and trade relations.
