The day before the first televised debate of the 2024 US presidential election, 16 Nobel laureates in economics released a joint letter warning of potential economic risks if former President Trump returns to the White House, including a possible resurgence of inflation. They expressed concerns about Trump's proposed tax policies and tariffs, suggesting they could lead to price increases. The letter was signed by notable economists such as Joseph Stiglitz, Angus Deaton, and George Akerlof, who have criticized Trump's economic policies in the past. Trump's campaign team dismissed the economists' positions, emphasizing that American citizens do not need Nobel laureates to tell them which president will make them wealthier.
