Merryn Talks Money

Anne Applebaum Says Trump 2.0 Might Be Good News For Dictators

Merryn and John are still OOO, enjoying their summer break, so on today's episode, we bring you a conversation between Stephanie Flanders and author and journalist Anne Applebaum about her latest book Autocracy, Inc: The Dictators Who Want to Run The World.  She says a network of dictators from China to Venezuela could be the beneficiaries of a welcoming White House should Donald Trump win the US election come November and warns that the self-proclaimed dealmaker and convicted felon’s foreign policy may be more personal and even less predictable in a second term. See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
