Donald Trump’s Endgame | EP36 | The White House Podcast LIVE 🏛🔴

Professor Penn opens this episode of the White House from Minneapolis by setting the tone with a mix of personal reflection and rising concern over what he sees as increasingly “fantastical” global developments, quickly pivoting into a deep analysis of President Trump’s recent geopolitical posture and strategic signaling.

Professor Penn and Royce White explore the idea that controlling energy flow could force foreign economies back into dollar-based systems, potentially eliminating the U.S. trade deficit and reshaping global power structures.
