Is there any coherence to Trumpism from a policy standpoint? Public policy expert, Lanhee Chen, says coherence is overrated... at least at this moment.    We're on YouTube!  https://www.youtube.com/@politicsandreligion   In this conversation with Lanhee Chen, we explore some hard questions in today's fraught political moment. As a key policy advisor to both Mitt Romney and Marco Rubio on their respective presidential campaigns, how can candidates and elected officials balance political considerations and policy priorities?

Noticeably absent from both the floors of Congress and the presidential campaign trail: innovative ideas for lowering healthcare costs, easing the system's regulatory burdens and offering patients greater freedom to design their own plans. Lanhee Chen, Hoover's David and Diane Steffy Fellow in American Public Policy Studies, discusses Hoover's Choices for All project to revamp America's healthcare system and he reflects on various health-related entitlement challenges that will soon overwhelm state and local governments (that includes rising Medicaid costs as well as Medicare costs related to America's growing elderly population).

Hoover Institution's Lanhee Chen returns to survey the current state of the American healthcare system, including Medicare/Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, and private insurance programs — along with new path breaking models, like Direct Primary Care. We discuss policy reforms that could bring much needed transparency and simplicity to care delivery. And we discuss why “choice and access for all” is a better way to think about healthcare policy as opposed to calling it a “human right.” We also talk about the implications of the Supreme Court's recent ruling on affirmative action in college admissions.  Lanhee J.

On this 23rd—but not 22nd or 24th—episode, Charles starts by taking on the preposterous idea that if one thinks that Donald Trump ought to have been impeached for what he did in 2021, the unrelated criminal case against him in New York must therefore be correct.Afterwards, Charles talks to Stanford's Lanhee Chen about whether California is salvageable, and then, on the Color Supplement, discusses the joy of half-dead cars with Luther Abel, who confirms that, in the Midwest, the quadratic spacing solution needs to be more viscous so that the cold weather doesn't contract the tetrafarseling or shimmy the wanglepins.The dial-up tone in the introduction was recorded by lintphishx and is used under a CC 3.0 License.
