Part 3/8:
Analyzing Trump's Potential Impact
With Trump re-assuming the presidency, Johnson expresses skepticism about the immediate efficacy of proposed economic policies. He believes that meaningful changes may take time, possibly not materializing until 2026. In his opinion, Trump will need a clear mandate to act swiftly and decisively, avoiding setbacks from legislative roadblocks or partisan conflicts.
Johnson also highlights how Trump’s policies will likely function in a high-stakes international context, suggesting that they may lead to competitive advantages for America even as they stir tensions abroad, particularly with China.
