Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

The curtailing of the labor markets,

Bloomberg Talks

The clear-cut inflationary pressure of tariffs, those were easy things for the president to implement, and unfortunately, they have continued to lead to this inflationary environment that we live in.

Bloomberg Talks

So I think it's going to be hard to roll back tariffs writ large unless the Supreme Court makes a pretty bold decision.

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

And I only say that because the Supreme Court's going to face the challenge of, does it want to take on the president with respect to one of his single most important policy wins from the perspective of the White House?

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

Does the Supreme Court really want to take that issue on?

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

As a matter of law, I hope they do, and I hope they take it on with a very thoughtful and reasoned opinion, but that's gonna be a tough call for the Supreme Court to make.

Now, having said that,

We have seen the rollback of tariffs, in particular in products that consumers put in their grocery cart.

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

The president's getting the message from the front lines, from the congresspeople that serve our people, that the voters are angry about inflation and they're looking for ways, they're looking for ways to help to address the issues of affordability.

Bloomberg Talks

It was very interesting, I was with a group of business executives and the president, he was very much listening for ideas

on how to address the issues of affordability in America.

Bloomberg Talks

He cares about this issue.

Well, Miami-Dade County has had a Democratic mayor actually for quite a bit of time now.

Bloomberg Talks

And Miami just recently elected a Democrat to be the mayor of the city of Miami.

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

And I think there's a stark contrast between the Democratic leader-elect of Miami and the leader-elect of New York City.

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

The leader-elect of New York City ran on a set of policies that will either be impossible to implement or that will come with a draconian long-term cost to the city of New York.

Bloomberg Talks

You know, for example, if you want to address the issue of housing affordability, you need to build more homes.

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

And when you're talking about rent control, all you're doing is telling developers in big neon lights, don't build in New York City.

Bloomberg Talks
Citadel's Ken Griffin Talks GOP Policies; Inflation

Now, contrast that with the incoming mayor of Miami.

Bloomberg Talks

She has a long history of being pragmatic with respect to policy choices that will improve the lives of the people who live in Miami.
