Follow Jeffrey Sachs: https://www.jeffsachs.org/The Center for Sustainable Development: https://csd.columbia.edu/Jeffrey Sachs joins Alexander and Alex to explain why the collapse of American and European hegemony is not a crisis for the world, but only for the political class clinging to it. Sachs breaks down the delusional thinking behind Scott Bessent's economic D Day, draws a chilling parallel to the events of 1914, and reveals why Iran, China and Russia are far stronger and more rational than Western leaders admit.
