Steve Hanke, Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University, joins James Connor to reveal the economic and political fallout of the Fed’s monetary missteps. From post-COVID inflation and rising wealth inequality to the 2024 election, Hanke unpacks how these policies reshaped the U.S. economy and secured Trump’s victory. He predicts a 2025 recession driven by money supply contraction and explores geopolitical risks and tensions, including China’s growing dominance in critical global industries.
