Trump Downplays War Costs as Oil Explodes and Markets Crash

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down the rapidly escalating war with Iran as it enters week two. Tehran has installed Mojtaba Khamenei as the new supreme leader — a move that effectively turns the Islamic Republic into a dynasty, decades after the revolution that was supposed to end dynastic rule. Meanwhile, casualties are rising, oil has surged past $100 a barrel, and global markets are starting to react. They discuss the economic fallout — from spiking energy prices to the potential impact on inflation and markets. Plus: what Mojtaba’s rise means for Iran’s future, how much influence Washington actually has over who leads the country, and whether Trump has a clear endgame for the conflict.
