In hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show, the hosts dive into a variety of pressing topics. Buck Sexton opens the show solo, as Clay Travis is away golfing, humorously comparing Clay's golf swings to those of Happy Gilmore. Buck shares his excitement about visiting Arizona for the first time, having recently visited Colorado as well.

The main focus of this hour is President Trump's recent announcement of new tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977. Buck explains that these tariffs, set to take effect on April 5th and April 9th, aim to address the trade deficit and unfair trade practices by imposing a 10% tariff on all countries, with additional tariffs on those with the largest trade deficits with the U.S. Buck emphasizes the significance of this move, describing it as a major economic shift intended to benefit American industry and national security.

The show features a clip of President Trump discussing the rationale behind these tariffs, highlighting the need to protect American jobs and industries from unfair foreign competition. Buck supports Trump's stance, arguing that previous trade policies have failed and that Trump's approach is necessary for long-term economic stability.

Additionally, Buck touches on the broader implications of these tariffs, including their potential impact on the global economy and national security. He mentions that countries like Israel have already responded positively by removing trade barriers with the U.S. Buck also discusses the importance of having a strong domestic industrial base to ensure national security, especially in times of global conflict.
