As the possibility of former U.S. President Donald Trumps re-election increases, interest in the so-called Trump division, which knew or assisted former President Trump in close proximity, is soaring.
If former President Trump retakes power, what will the second Trump White House do in the fields of politics, diplomacy, and economy? Those who will give a refreshing answer to this question will visit the World Knowledge Forum in September.
The most prominent figure is former national security adviser Robert OBrien. He replaced John Bolton, who had frequent disagreements with former President Trump, and led the Trump administrations foreign policy by serving for two years until the end of the former President Trumps term.
When former President Trump was re-elected, he emerged as a representative foreign and security expert in the Trump division. If former President Trump is re-elected, he is considered a candidate for secretary of state or national security adviser. At the Republican National Convention held on the 16th, he made a statement to the effect of increasing the cost sharing of U.S. troops stationed in South Korea.
Former chief of staff John Kelly, who served as White House chief of staff for a year and five months from August 2017 to the end of 2018, is also drawing attention. Kelly, along with former Secretary of Defense James Mattis, former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and former National Security Adviser Herbert McMaster, was called the Axis of Adults, which corrected former President Trumps unexpected behavior.
After stepping down as chief of staff, he broke up politically with former President Trump and is currently leading the criticism of Trump, but he is the person who can best predict what policies he will pursue in the second Trump administration as he has watched former President Trump from the closest distance. The World Knowledge Forum will hold a session under the theme of "Be prepared for the Trump era."
Arthur Rapper, a former professor at the University of Chicago who is famous for his rapper curve, which formed the basis of Reaganomics during the Ronald Reagan presidency, is also a member of the Trump division. Rapper Curve is a graph that expresses the claim that lowering the tax rate increases the tax source and increases the tax revenue.
He is one of former President Trumps economic books and is currently the head of the economic consulting firm Rapper Associates. This years World Knowledge Forum will give a lecture on the second Trumpnomics. It is also well known for founding supplyist economics through tax cuts. He is considered a candidate for chairman of the Federal Reserve or for treasury secretary if Trump returns to power.
Andrew Kim, a researcher at Harvard Universitys Belfer Center, who led the 2018 U.S.-North Korea summit between former President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un while serving as the head of the Korea Mission Center at the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), will also visit the World Knowledge Forum. Andrew Kim, who met with Kim along with former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, analyzes the changes in the situation on the Korean Peninsula during the Trump era.
Kelly Ann Shaw, a lawyer who served on the National Economic Council of the Trump White House, predicts the U.S. industrial policy that will change when Trump takes office in the session of the World Knowledge Forums "U.S. Industrial Policy After the Presidential Election." He advises the U.S. Congressional Trade Commission as an expert, and has been selected as the most influential person in Washington, D.C., for the last three years in a row.
