 While we've been speaking here John's Queen has been addressing the Parliament in the United Kingdom now I haven't been able to watch CNN for the last five minutes, but I can tell you that our analysts I'm sure going over that speech With a fine-tooth comb to see if there's any hint about the future of Brexit So the question and I don't want to bring up Brexit in the Middle East But Trump plays into Brexit he encouraged Brexit he promised or at least he Indicated that the United States would be willing to make up the trade deficit that it might be After trade breaks off with Europe With the United States the United States would make up. Do you have any confidence John and that that would happen? Well, I don't want to talk about Brexit either and I Don't think Trump had any influence on the Brexit referendum at all the original sin was David Cameron's And the fault was the British electorate's and you can't you may look for scapegoats may want to blame Trump but he's been a sort of Firing up some of the rhetoric, but you can't blame Trump for But can you do you have any faith that the United States is going to make up any kind of trade shortfall that? Absolutely, I mean the what we're seeing with President Trump is a more nationalist leader And I take seriously his basic slogans about make America great again It's a it's a false slogan at one level, but it shows what his priorities are He is not prepared to do what President Kennedy set out 60 years ago Which was an America would bear any burden and pay any price to defend freedom those words are absolutely meaningless to President Trump President Trump wants to create jobs for American workers make America safe from What he would see as threatening migration and he can let the rest of the world You know they can look after its own problems, and I do think I mean I just go back to the central question about What is Trump's legacy? I think it's important John Claude picked up on this He has been a president who has really helped American business And he's created confidence in America I think if Hillary Clinton had been elected America will be peering down a recession at the moment Because of the lack of investment in America, whereas this growth is falling But we'll probably bottom at about 2% in the next next year or so, so we shouldn't and all the Personal views that Joseph mentioned about Trump. I share entirely But he has done something about the American economy, which has reboosted confidence in American growth Which means that a recession is is a very least pushed off and delayed and certainly is unlikely to happen next year But the why why engage in trade war? I mean I agree with that point completely why engage in trade war if we hear well We came to a draw here and if I look at the statistics The the basic point about the trade war, which is to reduce your trade deficit has not happened Well, it probably has in China because I think the overall well overall it Trump is a very superficial view about trade and we all know that and When he rewrote NAFTA and called it the US Mexico-Canada agreement The change in the dial is about two or three percent. It was basically NAFTA with a new name And the substance has not changed very much at all. This is Trump's style Trump is aiming at domestic American politics rather than actually aiming to change the structure We don't have to take him seriously right sorry We don't have to take him seriously Well, you do have to take him seriously because he can act in a way Which is very unthought through and the sorts of areas that Hono was talking about his attitudes towards Iran his Relationship with autocrats like President Erdogan Leads to consequences, which he simply doesn't understand when he's having these conversations and Those are consequential. I think actually I would side more with Jean-Claude saying he's a very consequential president And I would say it's more than the it's it's the same and the reason he's consequential my third word was damaging I think his The damage isn't about individual policies. It's not about relationship with China. It's not about what happens in the Persian Gulf his approach on Deregulation has meant he's unable to do anything to contribute to the international efforts on climate change He barely believes climate change exists, let alone that it's a problem that America has a responsibility to address his approach on foreign relations Risks conflict and he is largely responsible for what is happening in Syria moment Although one has to say the original sin in Syria was President Obama's Versiding with a group on the ground which was aligned with the prescribed terrorist organization That sowed the seeds of the problem current problems with with Turkey's it's not all Turkey's fault Thirdly the disdain for alliances means that other countries around the world whether it's Britain France and Germany in Europe in our different positions Whether it's Japan and South Korea or Australia or friends of America around the world will simply not rely on America In the same way that he did before they will have to balance those relationships And they'll have to find they have to be more autonomous for their own defense and security That may not be a bad thing But it's a consequence of Trump and then lastly is the damage to international institutions Trump doesn't believe in American institutions He doesn't really believe in their Congress or the Supreme Court or the freedom of the media As an individual obviously his party believes in all those things But he certainly doesn't believe in international institutions Like the World Bank and the IMF or the international trading system system. So I think he's very consequential I think a one-term Trump presidency will do this much damage I think a two-term Trump presidency will do five times as much damage and that's the risk that we face you
