" βThe Trump administration is in a good position to negotiate a strong deal, one that can verifiably prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons for a significant period of time,β said Robert Einhorn, a former State Department nonproliferation official. βBut it shouldnβt overplay its hand.β
Iran has long balked at demands that it completely dismantle its nuclear program, which it claims is for peaceful purposes and not aimed at producing a nuclear device. A compromise that enabled it to enrich uranium with international inspections was central to the 2015 accord Tehran reached with the U.S. and other world powers.βThe Trump administration is in a good position to negotiate a strong deal, one that can verifiably prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons for a significant period of time,β said Robert Einhorn, a former State Department nonproliferation official. βBut it shouldnβt overplay its hand.β

NEW: Bill Maher says his βmind was blownβ to come to the realization that Trump is much more self-aware and personable than he ever imagined.
βEverything Iβve ever not liked about him was, I swear to God, absent,β Maher said.
βHeβs much more self-aware than he lets on in public. Look, I get it. It doesnβt matter who he is at a private dinner with a comedian. It matters who he is on the world stage. Iβm just taking as a positive that this person exists, because everything Iβve ever not liked about him was, I swear to God, absent.
βAt least on this night with this guy, Bob, Kid Rock told me the night before, he said, βIf you want to get a word in edgewise, youβre going to have to cut him off. Heβll just go on.β Not at all. Iβve had so many conversations with prominent people who are much less connected.
βPeople who donβt look you in the eye, people who donβt really listen because they just want to get to their next thing. People whose response to things you say just doesnβt track. Like what? None of that with him. And he mostly steered the conversation to, βWhat do you think about this?β
βI know your mind is blown. So is mine.β

A Userβs Guide to Restructuring
the Global Trading System
"The desire to reform the global trading system and put American industry on fairer ground vis-Γ -vis the rest of the world has been a consistent theme for President Trump for decades. We may be on the cusp of generational change in the international trade and financial systems.
The root of the economic imbalances lies in persistent dollar overvaluation that prevents the balancing of international trade, and this overvaluation is driven by inelastic demand for reserve assets. As global GDP grows, it becomes increasingly burdensome for the United States to finance the provision of reserve assets and the defense umbrella, as the manufacturing and tradeable sectors bear the brunt of the costs.
In this essay I attempt to catalogue some of the available tools for reshaping these systems, the tradeoffs that accompany the use of those tools, and policy options for minimizing side effects. This is not policy advocacy, but an attempt to understand the financial market consequences of potential significant changes in trade or financial policy.
Tariffs provide revenue, and if offset by currency adjustments, present minimal inflationary or otherwise adverse side effects, consistent with the experience in 2018-2019. While currency offset can inhibit adjustments to trade flows, it suggests that tariffs are ultimately financed by the tariffed nation, whose real purchasing power and wealth decline, and that the revenue raised improves burden sharing for reserve asset provision. Tariffs will likely be implemented in a manner deeply intertwined with national security concerns, and I discuss a variety of possible implementation schemes. I also discuss optimal tariff rates in the context of the rest of the U.S. taxation system.
Currency policy aimed at correcting the undervaluation of other nationsβ currencies brings an entirely different set of tradeoffs and potential implications. Historically, the United States has pursued multilateral approaches to currency adjustments. While many analysts believe there are no tools available to unilaterally address currency misvaluation, that is not true. I describe some potential avenues for both multilateral and unilateral currency adjustment strategies, as well as means of mitigating unwanted side effects.
Finally, I discuss a variety of financial market consequences of these policy tools, and possible sequencing."

π€£President Trump dialed a very wrong number and ended up chewing out his former national security advisor, according to the latest bizarre report on mixed White House messages.
It happened when Trump accidentally rang his former national security advisor, H.R. McMaster. In a bit of unfortunate timing, the call occurred a day after Trump ripped him as 'a weak and totally ineffective loser!' CBS News reported.
The tip-off that Trump had phoned the wrong person came when Trump started speaking to 'Henry.' The former Army Lieutenant General goes by 'H.R.'
'Mr. President, this is H.R. McMaster,' he responded, according to the network.
'Why the fuck would I talk' to H.R. McMaster?' Trump shot back, according to two sources, who said the president then went into a 'scathing critque' of McMaster, who dissects his 13 months working for Trump in his book, 'At War with Ourselves: My Tour of Duty in the Trump White House.'
He has spoken openly of the 'hold' he says Russian President Vladimir Putin has on Trump, criticism that has infuriated the president.
It turns out that the person Trump was trying to phone was South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster, a Trump loyalist who the president has appointed to his 'council of governors.'
