Hans Nichols’s Speech Topics
-
Election Outlook
After listening to Hans Nichols break down DC, you’ll understand why everyone in town talks to him. Inside the White House, he knows who’s up and who’s down — and crucially what time they wake up to start texting. He’ll take you inside those conversations and share real-time intel on how Team Biden plans to keep the presidency and the Senate. And the GOP’s strategy to win them back.
-
Geopolitical
Four presidents, four continents, half a dozen West African warlords, and one German chancellor, Hans Nichols has covered the world from inside Air Force One — and on the ground. His deep sourcing at the White House, Treasury, Pentagon, and State allows him to break news on serious policy pronouncements and who’s going to get what ambassadorship. He’ll help you understand the factions inside the administration pushing for change and the forces outside demanding it.
-
Economic Outlook
No one does palace intrigue like Hans Nichols. Because in any White House, personnel is policy. That’s especially true on the economy. Do you want to handicap the next Fed nominees? He’ll walk you through the leading candidates and what it means for rate hikes and regulation. From recession odds to the White House’s plan to avoid one, Hans can translate his wonky conversations with senior Treasury and NEC officials into plain English. And then break down the politics of the big macro questions.
