Is bipartisanship good for the economy?
Sudeep Reddy of Politico and Linette Lopez of Business Insider join us to discuss the week’s business and economic news.

Plus: Congress has been hindered by legislative gridlock for years, but with Trump’s recent deals with Democrats, including DACA and the debt ceiling, we examine if bipartisanship is good for the economy.
