Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: Trump’s WAR on the Dollar – The FALL of America’s Financial Empire

Economic and geopolitical analysis reveals how aggressive U.S. trade policies, including tariffs and sanctions, are backfiring, pushing countries to reorient trade away from America. The discussion highlights a global shift as nations resist U.S. pressure, seek economic independence, and build alternative systems. China’s export surge despite tariffs contrasts with rising U.S. inflation and stagnation, signaling a deflationary global trend. The weaponization of trade and finance, along with failed diplomatic coercion, is accelerating the decline of U.S. influence. Countries are responding with non-tariff protections, domestic investment, and new alliances, while American isolation deepens. The video also touches on media censorship of these systemic issues and the psychological denial within U.S. political culture, drawing parallels with Israel’s self-destructive policies. A new international consciousness is emerging—one focused on sovereignty, multipolarity, and resistance to economic imperialism.
