Disaster Economics: Paul Krugman on the Trump Era and What Comes After

The Trump years are giving us a masterclass in what not to do — on trade, on taxes, on truth itself. This is no normal economic cycle — we’re in something stranger, shakier, and shaped as much by political performance as by policy. Now, as we ricocheting from tariff threats to crypto hype to inflation conspiracy theories, Paul Krugman takes the stage to ask the big questions: What is actually happening? What can we learn (if anything)? And where does the economy go from here? With his trademark blend of clarity, irreverence, and data-driven insight, Krugman walks us through the economic policies that upended norms — from tariffs that punished consumers and sowed global distrust, to the crypto bubble and its enduring appeal among grifters. He’ll explore how economic policy became a tool of performative politics — and what that means for the future of democracy and prosperity. This isn’t just about markets and models. It’s about how economics collides with politics, how bad ideas gain traction, and how we begin to fix what’s been broken. If you’ve ever wished you could mute the pundits and get the unvarnished economic truth — this is your chance. Recorded Jun 30, 2025 at The 92nd Street Y, New York.
