Victor Davis Hanson: How Trump Is Upending the Status Quo, From Beijing to Gaza to Kyiv

5Mind. The Meme Platform

In this episode of American Thought Leaders, we sit down again with Victor Davis Hanson, a classicist, military historian, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, and author of two dozen books, including most recently “The End of Everything.”

In this interview, we dive into the multifaceted dimensions of what he describes as Trump’s “counterrevolution” in the foreign policy space, from Canada to China to the Middle East to Ukraine and Russia.

What might the end of the wars in Ukraine and Gaza look like?

Should Trump have accepted a plane from Qatar’s royal family? Was it a good idea to lift U.S. sanctions on Syria’s new leader? Is there any truth to rumors of friction between Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu?

Is it possible that Trump actually, in some sense, wanted Mark Carney to win and become Prime Minister of Canada?

And how can the United States ensure the Chinese leadership upholds their commitments in a trade agreement, given their track record of not following through?
