Former President Donald Trump is set to speak with Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait at the Economic Club of Chicago on Tuesday. The event, initially planned for 11 a.m. CT, has been pushed back to 11:45 a.m. CT. Trump's main message revolves around inflation, promising that if reelected, inflation would disappear. This message resonates with many Americans still dealing with the consumer price hikes that started over three years ago.

However, many economists disagree with Trump's approach. They believe his policies, such as imposing large tariffs on imported goods, deporting millions of migrant workers, and interfering with the Federal Reserve's interest rate decisions, would actually worsen inflation. This critical viewpoint highlights the contrast between Trump's promises and the potential economic reality.

The conversation between Trump and Micklethwait is expected to delve into these contentious topics, offering insights into Trump's economic vision and the potential impacts of his policies. The event comes just three weeks before the presidential election, making it a crucial moment for voters to assess Trump's economic plans.
