On Monday I attended an outstanding talk at the Hoover Institution given by Dartmouth University economics professor Doug Irwin.

Although Doug was, not surprisingly, critical of Trump, he didn't take any cheap shots. Rather, he, using PowerPoint, showed statements that Trump had made about trade and showed why they didn't make sense
