'Madman' Trump warned he may end America's 52-year reign as globe's financial king

President Donald Trump's bet on war with Iran could have a significant impact on the United States' global financial standing, an analyst explained Monday.

The Bulwark's Jonathan V. Last described how Trump's decision "could speed up de-dollarization" and challenge the American currency's dominance, ultimately altering the 52-year history of the petrodollar system.

"I have been saying since the beginning that America is playing checkers while Iran plays chess, but it’s worse than that," Last wrote.
