The 2016 presidential election saw the rise of Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders - a political backlash brought on by “main street” America feeling forgotten in our world of corporate capitalism. David Smick predicted that backlash. Smick is an expert on macroeconomics, has advised politicians on both sides of the aisle, from Bill Bradley to Ronald Reagan, and authored the bestselling book The Great Equalizer. He joins us at Cross Currents to break down the state of the American economy and the American Dream, and how they're both being influenced by a sense of hatred running through the country.
