Steve Hanke on the Fed’s Failures, Trump’s Win, and Recession in 2025
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.
