Panelist:
David Zere - Host of Breaking Point on Real Americas Voice News.
11:10 AM ET
Segment Topic:
- Donald Trump’s foreign policy is starting to resemble Richard Nixon’s.
- According to NIALL FERGUSON’s opinion piece in the NY Post, Donald Trump’s foreign policy is Richard Nixon 2.0 or Nixon’s revenge against old-Europe.
- Many of my European friends are reeling from the events of the past two weeks. They feel the way many US allies felt on the night of Sunday, Aug. 15, 1971, after President Nixon had gone on TV to announce a 10% surcharge on all imports, a supposedly temporary suspension of the convertibility of the dollar into gold, and a 90-day wage and price freeze.
- The “Nixon Shock” was in response to a run on gold by European holders of dollars, as well as a rise in US inflation. But it had a geopolitical counterpart. Nixon’s announcement a month earlier, on July 15, that he would be visiting Communist China the following year was as big a shock in Japan and Taiwan as the dollar devaluation a month later.
- The CCP (like the Soviet Union) is faced with an arms race with the United States.
- Can the CCP withstand an arms race with the USA? Will they suffer the same fate at the Soviet Union?
