Trump’s agenda is as ambitious as Mitterrand’s in 1981, but it’s not what it means to live in a capitalist world

Frida Ghitis: Markets have done far more to impede Trump than any political actors have.

She says Mitterrand in France was forced to devalue his country's currency and nationalize many industries.

Ghitis says U.S. has long been seen as the world’s safest repository of funds for even longer than that.

Bob Kuttner : Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is the " one grown-up" in Trump 's entourage.

He says he's the emissary from the markets, the only gods in Trumpland with power exceeding Trump ’s.

Trumponomics doesn’t mean Democrats should worship the markets at the altar; it means that Democrats should now worship them, he says.
