At The Economic Club of New York’s gala marking America’s 250th anniversary, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent unveils a five-pillar framework for “economic statecraft” — tying trade, supply chains, and financial leadership directly to national security. WATCH:
.
Building national capacity to manufacture domestically
Demanding reciprocity in trade
Writing global rules on trade and AI
Maintaining dollar dominance
Ensuring average Americans share in the prosperity
All key points. The global rules on trade and AI requires people sitting at the table.
Dollar dominance, the debt is a huge problem.
Americans should share in the prosperity but only if they have participated in that process.
Thank you for that summary. I knew I’d never find the time to watch.
