Chairman of international investment advice firm warns Trump win in 2020 will bring about the ......

.....‘end of the world order’


President Donald Trump caused a whirlwind when he suggested that Russia be invited back into the Group of 7 on Friday.

As he was headed to the G7 summit in Charlevoix, Canada, President Trump told reporters: “Russia should be in this meeting. They should let Russia come back in, because we should have Russia at the negotiating table.”

“If President Trump is reelected, and it will be very close, then during his second term, we have to worry about the end of the liberal world order,” Kupchan said. “A second term would allow him enough time to do irreparable damage to liberal institutions, to the WTO [World Trade Organization] and Bretton Woods.”

Hadley wondered what purpose President Trump’s disruption would serve.

“Trump supporters wanted a ‘disrupter in chief’ who would challenge or even overturn the system. Because of that — and who he is — you are going to see a lot of disruption for the first couple of years of this presidency, as President Trump tries to reset the table on a range of issues,” Hadley said. “The question is whether he can make something affirmative to come out of that disruption. On that, the jury is still out.”

to wave a magic wand and go back to a time when white men had all the good jobs and didn't have to compete with anyone for them. I think they wanted people of color and those women who do not depend financially on a white man to be crushed back under the heel.

I think they thought that would RESTORE some imaginary order that never existed but that they feel nostalgic about.
