After a long and historic election cycle, former President Donald Trump has been reelected and will become the 47th president of the United States. What will this mean for the nation and your bottom line? We get into it.

In this week’s episode of Capitol Gains, anchor Rachelle Akuffo, Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul, and senior columnist Rick Newman break down what happened on Election Day between both the Harris and Trump campaigns, review economic exit polling, and take a look forward at what’s next for the United States and the economy as the nation begins its transition into the new administration.

The team is also joined by Oxford Economics US chief economist Ryan Sweet, who stops by the podcast to discuss the latest economic forecasting, in addition to the potential impact of Trump's tariffs on the economy.
