In conversation with Dr. Pippa Malmgren, Charles breaks down national politics to understand why voters have rejected the establishment and the market impact of both outcomes, and what to expect from tomorrow’s election.

    Could it be that the whole beat up was just Trump exploiting the small window he had to get the THAAD missiles in to S Korea. Shortly SKorea will have elections, and the front runner Moon is keen to restart negotiations with NKorea., and has misgivings about the THAAD missiles, and also the subservient relationship with the US.
    Those missiles are overkill , and are really aimed at containing China(which has raised alarm in that country ) and Russia.
    Unfortunately Kim Jong Un predictably rose to the bait( the annual aggressive invasion practises the US and S Korea engage in) right on cue, which must have pissed China off hugely
    The THAAD missiles allow for a first strike capability(supposedly, …their effectiveness is rumoured to be less than 50%)so are a huge threat to China and Russia
    Wouldn’t put it past Trump to blow NKorea apart as a “message”,whilst taking the moral high ground as a protector of brave little SKorea
