The Republican Party now claims to be pro-worker, however their policy actions don’t align with the sentiment. From appointing anti-union officials to boasting about minimizing workforces, the conservative movement seems to be at odds with its past. Joining Jon Stewart this week is Chief Economist at American Compass, Oren Cass, and author of “The Price of Peace: Money, Democracy, and the Life of John Maynard Keynes”, Zachary Carter, to explore labor rights, immigration, trade, the economy and domestic manufacturing. They attempt to figure out what the future of the Republican Party looks like in a post-Trump era and discuss how capitalism should function in a way that benefits the worker.
