Martin A. Armstrong(@ArmstrongEcon):This is where the difference between Trump and Vance becomes particularly interesting. Trump’s administration has maintained close relationships with Israeli leadership while pursuing military objectives against Iran. Kushner’s network is deeply involved in Middle Eastern diplomacy and regional investment. Vance, meanwhile, emerged from the Silicon Valley investment community and has increasingly emphasized the economic and political costs of continuing the conflict. These relationships do not prove that either man’s foreign-policy position is dictated by a financial patron. They do demonstrate that powerful interests surrounding the two politicians are not identical.
