As Donald Trump’s self-imposed deadline for Iranian acquiescence approaches, are we witnessing the Madman Theory in action?

I am delighted to finally unveil the updated cover art for my forthcoming book, US Grand Strategy and the Madman Theory.

The state of the economy was at the heart of Donald Trump’s campaign for a second- non-consecutive term as president, and in many ways, things have taken an upturn since his election. The latest GDP figures, however, coupled with the introduction of tariffs, appears likely to have a negative impact on consumer spending, a vital component in the nation’s economic wellbeing.

Remarkably enough we have already reached that first milestone in any presidency, the first 100-days. Technically, of course, this is Donald Trump’s second 100-days, but who’s counting? Whatever one makes of his administration, and the jury will doubtless remain stubbornly divided regardless of events, it has surely done more in its first 100 days than any other since the concept was first introduced during FDR’s first term.

Today has seen a classic example of how the Trump administration’s rapid response to events can bring about rapid change. Speaking at the White House during a briefing to mark the Trump administration’s 100th day in office press secretary Karoline Leavitt tore into plans that Amazon was preparing to provide customers with the cost of Trump’s tariffs next to the price of products on its website.
