325: Trump’s Election & What It Means for Your Offshore Plan-B

No matter where you live or where you’re from, it’s hard to avoid the U.S. election. Whether we like it or not, whoever holds that office has tremendous power and will undoubtedly affect the geopolitical landscape over the next four years. In today’s episode, I am joined by two of my Expat Money team members, Marc Clair and Remso Martinez - who happen to be Americans and experts on U.S. politics. The three of us have a roundtable discussion about the recent election of Donald Trump and its potential impact on expats and your offshore plans. We explore what his promises around tax cuts, deregulation, and government downsizing could mean for Americans living overseas and why an offshore Plan-B remains essential in today’s volatile political landscape. Enjoy!  

TODAY’S CONVERSATION ABOUT THE U.S. ELECTION OF DONALD TRUMP:

• Join me and two American experts as we discuss Trump’s election victory, analyzing its immediate impacts on the U.S. economy and global conflicts.
• We explore the broader cultural shifts following Trump’s win: does it mark a turning point against wokeness and lockdown policies?
• Discover how the Internet and Trump’s last-minute campaign podcast tour played a role in his election success.
• Can Trump follow through on promises to cut government size and drastically reduce taxes? We share predictions on the direction his presidency could take.
• How did Trump achieve this victory? Marc and Remso unpack the conditions that paved the way, along with why this election didn’t see the same “shenanigans” as in 2024.
• Should Americans still create an offshore Plan-B and/or become expats with Trump as President?
• We delve into Trump’s potential impact on the BRICS alliance and its push towards non-dollar payment systems—will the trend towards de-dollarization continue under his presidency?
