Clifford Asness raised concerns about the coherence of U.S. foreign policy in a recent tweet. He questioned how a strategy that aims at the removal of an adversarial regime, and its successors, while frequently demanding regime change and unconditional surrender, can transition to holding what are described as ''very good talks'' with that same regime. Asness described the target regime as ''100% evil'' and suggested that such an approach may strengthen its position, both domestically and internationally. The tweet prompts scrutiny of the effectiveness and consistency of U.S. diplomatic and strategic goals.
Asness has previously commented on domestic policy issues, recommending that the U.S. index capital gains for inflation to better align tax policy with real investment outcomes. He has also addressed social topics, stating that stereotypes about Jewish wealth do not diminish the reality of ongoing antisemitism. These comments reflect his focus on both economic and societal matters in recent public statements.
