Fortress America

Donald Trump’s popularity proves Americans are tired of the post-War order. Why does our country have to be the world’s police officer?

It’s clear that we’re pivoting away from that setup. What will replace it? Isolationism? Or something more unique? What about a fortress America?

Unstable as things may feel, America isn’t collapsing, says geopolitical forecaster George Friedman. It’s merely going through a predictable and necessary reset. In ten years, we’ll be fine.

Unstable as things may feel, America isn’t collapsing, says geopolitical forecaster George Friedman. It’s merely going through a predictable and necessary reset. In ten years, we’ll be fine.

Author and political scientist George Friedman has made a career of predicting the future, and he says that’s exactly where we’re headed.

Friedman joined today’s Tucker Carlson Show to reveal what this new reality could look like, the importance of space domination, why Donald Trump is this equation’s ultimate wild card, and more. Click the image below to watch.

George Friedman tells Tucker:

“Whether he planned it or just is it, [Donald Trump] is the man of the moment. He’s the wrecking ball that Lincoln was. The wrecking ball that Roosevelt was, that Jackson was. And he’s shifting the country.”
