That in no way implies that it isn't Keynesian nonsense, which it absolutely is.
Some of those other details are interesting, though, and I agree that the biggest real move to undermine Russia is developing American energy resources.
My point on protectionism, is just that Trump means it. It's not an empty threat, although it likely is exaggerated. I don't feel like getting into an argument about whether it's prudent or not, because I don't think there's any chance we'll see eye to eye on that.
I have been struggling to find an alternative to Keynesian that doesn't involve even more government interventionism (Stockholm School, Monetarism, Marxism...) are you trying to fit into New Classical? If you go into the Austrian school with F.A. Hayek you run into key things that Trump hits on when it comes to immigration. I agree with Hayek's idea of boom-bust cycles but he still has hellaciously flawed ideas just like you find in every other economic model/idea

I generally agree with Austrian analysis, as far as it goes. They intentionally limit the scope of their analysis to topics that don't require empirical validation, which I think is overly restrictive.
