US Ambassador front-runner: Play it right and Trump could be best thing ever for SA

An expert on Donald Trump, Joburg-born Harvard Law School graduate Joel Pollak, explains why US President could (and should) be SA’s dream Oval Office friend. The frontrunner to become the new US Ambassador to SA, Pollak knows Trump well, having written two books on him and thousands of words about the famously ‘transactional’ leader. In this interview, Pollak explains why, despite a hectic agenda, Trump has been paying attention to SA - offering suggestions to transform antagonism into friendship and unlock an economic turnaround with the potential to create millions of new jobs. He spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg. Video production by Ruan Erasmus The seventh BizNews Conference, BNC#7, is to be held in Hermanus from March 11 to 13, 2025.
