On this week’s episode of “The David Frum Show,” The Atlantic’s David Frum opens with his thoughts questioning whether the Trump administration has any plan at all to meet the challenge of debt and deficits. Then, David is joined by Vincent Smith, director of agricultural policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute and professor emeritus of economics at Montana State University. Frum and Smith discuss the high price of groceries, Trump’s lack of a plan to address it, and whether any relief is coming to Americans. Finally, David ends the episode with a discussion of Edith Hamilton’s “Mythology.” Sign up for David Frum’s newsletter alert. Get more from your favorite Atlantic voices when you subscribe.
