This Is How Trump Intends To Rule The World
from Mallen Baker: Faultlines · host Mallen Baker
Rather a lot of people believe that once all the countries have either negotiated 'deals' with the United States, or have resigned themselves to higher tariff rates, everything will settle down. The US will have higher tariffs, and that will just become the new normal. They are completely missing the point. President Trump fully intends to remain at the centre of world events for the full length of his term, and he is developing a pretty sharp appetite for interfering in the affairs of others right across the world. What will that look like? And who are the people, like Exxon Mobil, lining up to get a piece of the action? Let's discuss.
