As people around the world waited for the announcement of a new US president, Sam Sutton, the author of Politico’s Morning Money newsletter – which goes out daily around 5AM – was hard at work preparing three different newsletters covering the various potential outcomes (Trump win, Harris win, or too close to call). Needless to say, he only needed one of those, and since that time he has been hard at work trying to provide insights to readers about how Trump 2.0 will impact the economy, the regulatory environment, trade policies, crypto and more. On this episode of Press Profiles, Sam gives a pretty good idea of what we can expect. He also talks about his path to journalism, his flirtation with politics and why at the end of day he decided, “it was a lot more fun to cover these people than to be one of these people.”
