Cold War Donald Trump

from Cold War Cast Hosted by Cold War Cast

Part 2 of our series on current world leaders and the Cold War Today we’re looking at how the Cold War shaped Donald Trump and his experiences growing up during a period of peak American prosperity and moral authority, watching it decline then rising back up again. Although he had no military or political experience during this period, he reflected a mood in the country and became the poster child of free market capitalism during the 80’s. We talk about his history and how Cold War thinking shaped his present style of diplomacy. Yes, we talk about the draft deferments too. Like, share, subscribe and check out www.reddragonherbs.com
