Trump 2.0 will not be a “golden age” for Big Business! – by Philippe Mudry

Donald Trump therefore described his world to us: everything can be bought there, including countries, everything can be sold there, including its principles, everything can be negotiated, including what does not belong to you. Welcome to the United States of the “golden age”, where those who believe that without trust there is no lasting agreement, in diplomacy or in business, are only unforgivably naive; where the rules of the game are made to be thrown into the basket by those who created them; and where the brutal balance of power becomes the only negotiation tool adapted to this era of universal cynicism.
