David Rubenstein: Tariffs Won’t Push Us Into Recession 3/25/25
About this episode
Tariffs have rattled the markets, but Carlyle co-founder and chairman David Rubenstein says they won’t push us into a recession. He suspects M&A could pick up soon, though at a discount. Rubenstein discusses owning the Orioles and his departure from the chairman role at The Kennedy Center. “How to Build a Happy Life” host and AEI President Emeritus Arthur Brooks has hope for America’s future, despite partisan vitriol. Plus, a Signal group chat has made it out of the White House and into news headlines, and Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway March Madness bracket competition has a winner–or 12.
