Hour 1 - No Reason for Panic

Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show kicks off with Clay Travis sharing his recent golf experience at Doral, including playing with professional golfers Paul Casey and Charles Howell II, and a brief encounter with President Trump. The hosts then delve into the stock market downturn, discussing the impact on 401(k)s and the importance of not obsessing over stock prices. They highlight the economic policies of President Trump, particularly his efforts to correct decades of futility in immigration, border policy, federal budget processes, and trade agreements. The conversation shifts to the tariffs imposed by Trump, emphasizing the need for fairer trade agreements and the short-term pain associated with these drastic changes.

The hosts also discuss the political implications of Trump's actions, noting the lack of support from Democrats and the potential long-term benefits of onshoring jobs. They touch on the national security aspect of relying on foreign countries for essential goods and the importance of domestic manufacturing. The show features clips from prominent figures like Nancy Pelosi and Bernie Sanders, who previously advocated for tariffs and fair trade agreements, highlighting the shift in political stances over time.

Throughout the hour, Clay and Buck engage with callers, discussing their views on the tariffs and the stock market. They emphasize the strategic calculation behind Trump's actions and the need for patience to see the long-term benefits. The hour concludes with a discussion on the potential impact of interest rate cuts on the housing market and the broader economy.
