Is there an existential threat to democracy? Will America see a civil war in 2024?
From the potential consequences for individual countries to the global economy and political system, today's conversation is not just about asking hard questions, but finding a path forward in times of radicalization, misinformation, and geopolitical turbulence.
Ian Bremmer is a political scientist, author, and entrepreneur focused on global political risk. He is the founder and president of Eurasia Group, a political risk research and consulting firm, and GZERO Media, a digital media company covering global affairs.
In today’s thought-provoking episode, Ian and I go deep into geopolitics as he shares his insights on pressing global issues including:
- the geopolitical stakes of the US election
- what role AI plays in spreading misinformation
- impacts of lies and loss of credibility on governance
- the influence of economic disparity on cultural behaviors
- scenarios for Trump or Biden election victories
- fragmentation risks of NATO and the Ukrainian political system

Powerful Insights From Ian Bremmer:
“It's not that we're going to start blowing ourselves up. It's more that we aren't capable of having a free and fair election that the entire country believes in anymore."
"Globalization is absolutely great for the United States, but globalism sucks for the average American."
"The CDC has taken a massive hit of trust and has become politicized in the United States. And we need to be able to believe our doctors and our scientists, we need that."
“...In the last 40 years, church membership has fallen off a cliff in the United States. Belief in the church, trust in the church, has gone way down. Just like belief in Congress, the belief in the public school system…just like belief in the judiciary."

Respectfully when he said truckers riots I need to leave the podcast now. It disqualifies everything he said. Canada Supreme Court just ruled it was unlawful what they did to those guys.
I'm only 10 minutes in and this guy is a total tool talking out his ass. This guy has no clue. He needs to sharpen his pencil.
I totally agree with you!
Wow, me too.
Exactly!
Division has knocked on Canada & Europe too. Are there things that you are doing in effort to help yourself or community understand one another? Can we somehow spark something constructive in a random internet comment, which can spill over to Canada, Europe, and USA? Actually. For my part, I start by acknowledging everything I think or interpret is not necessarily gospel. That my understanding evolves.
This guy speaks like he's been under a rock since 2017 and only had 2 hours to be briefed on current headlines before this interview
He said 'single party democracy' with such love. This man is dangerous.
The party approach needs to go but not into a single party. What a deathblow to actual democracy that would be! Much better to approach as decentralized democracy -- make the ideas compete, not people, not parties -- use blockchain to verify the specific goals and policies being voted upon, administrate and support financially.
Unity looks like a single party democracy.
I absolutely agree
I was surprised to hear Ian mention the trucker "riots" in Ottawa. Riots? What riots? It was one of the most peaceful and effective demonstrations in history.
The guys just another tool for the elite, a backwards visionary of what serves his own pocketbook
This guy is not a thinker or an analyst. He is a *regime* propagandist.
It got shut down because of all those trucks honking there were tens of thousands of East Indians that I just emigrated here and they couldn’t sleep
Bro, I was thinking the same thing..and then he is literally like "I am impartial I don't belong to a political party" but his bias's are baked into his "analysis'. I can't believe he tried to pull the "Russia invaded for NO REASON" thing as well quite a few others I noticed..typical of someone who is part of that elite class..he has NO idea what it is like for those struggling...come on man..I think many people who are apolitical (which is many many people) should REALLY do a deep dive and try to figure out WHY people feel a certain way...and what you come out with might actually surprise and scare the shit out of you..and might change your beliefs. I think many people want to virtue signal and vote for Dems because they are the "politically correct" party..but in all reality that has not been the case for quite some time. The corruption is rampant and REAL change has to happen. Career politicians will not get the job done..they will just keep accumulating power and passing terrible legislation and letting the 3 letter agencies invade the privacy of the American people. The constitution is CLEAR on many key tenets that people haven't even learned correctly because the public education system is just an indoctrination camp. The wolves are leading the sheep into tyranny disguised as "security and safety" and the climate change agenda, scaring the living shit out of kids and young adults, confusing them by injecting gender ideology marxism into education. Shameful really.
He's still pushing a semi woke agenda I pay him as little attention as you possibly can
I think it's pretty clear what side he's on by judging what he's saying. America hasn't been a democracy for quite some time now. Money over everything.
Never was. Republics are in place to protect us against democracy. Democracy is bill gates & 2 other people voting on how to tax high earners.
Have you ever watched Whitney Webb interviews? The system is rigged, and it’s corrupt to the core. Americans believe in the myth that a president can save us. Whoever wins…nothing changes.
The United States was NEVER a democracy. It’s a constitutional representative republic.
EXACTLY! Well said!
Government is being run by criminals how goal is to get rich now is filleted down to poblic
Can someone tell this guy Europe is seriously crazy right now. This guy makes it seems like Europeans are just sitting around a fireplace with a book and debating their opinions on Americans.
In what way is Europe crazy?
This guy is so far from reality and real daily life of the normal person it’s scary!
France is a military state right now! FARMERS are PROTESTING in FRANCE, GERMANY, NETHERLANDS(one of the largest exporting food countries) Italy and Romania Farmers are protesting!!!
Americans can't be taken seriously when it comes to their opinions of the world. They're too far gone, lived too long in a debt fueled society detached from true suffering. Come live in a 3rd world country with 40% unemployment, then I'll take your opinions seriously.
Facts
How can you take someone serious who doesn't even know what form of government we have.
Exactly because we have a Constitutional democratic republic and it’s not a democracy blah blah blah and I get tired of hearing Joe Biden, and the Democrats use the word democracy all the time but they’re fascist and they censor us and they’re not the only ones. Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and other countries use social media apps like Facebook and KZhead, Instagram, etc. etc. to censor people all around the world. I love America but it’s not a country I recognize anymore and it’s getting worse and worse and even if it gets better for a couple years it’ll get worse again because it did that between 2001 and 2008 and it was starting to decline but got it was better under George Bush but then it got worse in 2008 and then Obama comes in and he was just godforsaken awful and I didn’t think his presidency was ever going to end and I knew I was supporting Trump because I knew he was going to be an excellent economical president and he was! The thing is that if Trump gets elected for four years once he’s out, it’ll go back to the same old same old establishment more than likely and Trump will be 82 and he’s not gonna be as active in the party and he’s not gonna be able to kick them in the butt and get them in line and they’ll go back to the same old same old so I’ve been looking around in areas and it’ll lead to move and it sounds bad, but I just have because I simply don’t trust the government with their spying in the Fascism here
"Misinformation?" Who gets to define what that is? A government entity?
Can't stand it when someone says, "The people are well intentioned but its the system that is broken". Systems are used by people. Systems don't act on their own and people using the "system" are the ones generating the observable outcomes. These people are the bad ones. The system is just a tool.
Its a tactic to shift blame bc he likely is one of those people or knows them. He doesn't want to lose any of his friends, colleagues, family members or neighbors.
True, the system is just a tool but we also know that people are as bad, greedy, corrupt, selfish etc etc... as they are allowed to be (by law, regulation etc...)
@ogmaharpocrates2742 exactly! For example, the US is $34 trillion in debt. Who owns majority of the debt (treasury bills, notes, and bonds) and profits (receive interest) of the debt? You guessed it, Americans! (individual investors, the US Government itself, pensions, brokerage firms, banks, local governments, insurance companies, private equity). Who created the debt? Yup, Americans! (US Congress, State and local governments). Who consumes majority of the debt? Yup, Americans! (Mostly boomers through social security and military spending controlled by the same demographic). Who pays the debt and the interest? You were fuckin right again... Americans (living and yet to be born) who do not own a significant amount of any debt or asset (the bottom 80%). Americans are enslaving Americans.
Just what i was going to say,... save your money or it will be gone. If by chance a gop person gets in even less protections for you. There is no way trump will win. No way,... he is such a loser. @@ogmaharpocrates2742
Not our system, our system in the US uses the God out of their people. And generally to promote others and continue taking from us
Notice he put no blame on the DNC? It was either the “system”, Trump, or “MAGA types”….. Barely mentioned Biden. This was not an objective interview, Tom.
@doreeneclose6295 you heard what you wanted. He did have some salient points occasionally but he's a straight up establishment leftist.
@@jerrycoplen8658 he may be an "establishment" leftist but far from a real one. a real leftist and marxist engage in dialogue with maga types due to our understanding that these culture wars and ideological non-sense is what blinds us from the truth. which is the capitalist/owner/billionaire class use their wealth off the backs of workers, and then use that to influence the laws that govern us. and im sure even pro-capitalist right wingers agree with that, so starting from there, we can then discuss what to do about it. but democrats dont give a fuck about that because they are the billionaire class as well, so they act as if they are pro-black, lgbt, homeless, impoverished etc but their policies exacerbate issues which then lead to more polarization. for example, the border crisis is something that EVERYONE is waking up to because of the sheer incompetence and selfishness of our politicians. we have a limited pie and when migrants come in, they are taking a piece for themselves meanwhile the people in our home countries are getting maximally exploited by our employers AND state. when an unemployed homeless person car jacks a working class person, the working class person suffers(i've been a victim of it) and id rather educate that car jacker to earn a car than to have an environment in my country where people think thats okay and demonize them for it because objectively his material conditions are worse than mine and i can empathize.. heres a little statistic I find eye opening: The GDP Per American Worker is $143,750, which is what the Average worker in america produced. Meanwhile the Average salary is $74000, and the median being $50000. AND ON TOP OF THAT, WE ARE TAXED LOL. So the capitalist that own the business and run the state, TAX US AT PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION AND EVERYWHERE IN BETWEEN... workers need to rise up and be alpha.
@doreeneclose6295 he omitted a lot of truth that wasn’t convenient for his narrative
Why would you assume both sides have to be equally at fault? Historically it often is just one political party causing all the problems, all the while refusing to believe they are the problem.
He’s a deep state globalist schill. Tom should not do this type of interview. He’s incapable of conducting a meaningful reality based discussion with a political snake
We have a Republic not democracy.
I dont agree. The leading indicator of how you feel about the economy are prices. IF you are spending so much at the grocery store and the gas pump you are not feeling like the economy is doing well.
When he said “your feelings about whether the economy is good or bad is directly related to your political affiliation…” I almost spit my coffee out my nose. What?!!!
Thats been known for years. All the polls show that since 2016 republicans and democrats will think the economy is terrible under the other side, and the minute their guy wins they think the economy is great.
I was thinking the same rent in my city has tripled in only 12 years that is not a feeling this guy disconnected from reality or too rich to understand the struggle of working class folks like myself. Maybe I have misunderstanding of what a good economy means perhaps the term does not include upward mobility for the next generation
So what he is referring to here is something that has shown up in surveys in the past few decades. What they show is a direct link between how voters feel about the economy is correlated to which party holds the White House. Also note, that people's views about the economy is different from what they feel about their own situation. For instance, right now most polls show that a lot of people worried about the economy are less worried about their own finances.
Same. These people who are holding a job, or who are retired seniors, and they're getting priced out of their rentals and facing homelessness... THOSE people only judge the state of our economy based on which political party they believe in? The people who can't afford much needed medication think our economy is doing pretty good because their party is in office? Pfffttt. This guy lost all credibility when he said that.
He is making a point more then saying red vs blue have different ideas at looking at the same thing. From an economic standpoint, America is doing very good right now, but the benefits go strait to the top 1%, the very same people driving this massive 25-26Trillion GDP economy. Normal people (in money terms) don't get the benefits of this progress. If we all could agree that focusing on prospects for children who haven't been born yet deserve more attention then those who are already in the suffering of today, we could work to a future where we align things like GDP output to citizen gain. As is, while capitalize is clearly better then the other current options, we do not have a way of safeguarding the less monetarly educated working class. They will just keep working till they die as they always have. It's high time society does it's side of the deal to progress humanity, or the weak will suffer what the must as the rich do as they please. The long and short of it is focus on making life for someone else's kids better, safer, more opportunity to spend our short lives how we choose. We are close but still have more suffering to do, and we won't see the benefit, it's a sick joke but it is reality. 😅
I love your work, Tom but when your guest started popping off about Canada and the Trucker's protest and how democracy has only slightly erroded in Canada - I'm sorry but he obviously knows very little or anything about what is actually going on in Canada! I was doing journalistic work and went to the Trucker's protest to see for myself what was actually going on - it was not what it has been made out to be by mainstream media and your guest! There are hundreds, if not thousands of hours of footage as to what was really going on down there. It wasn't "mostly peaceful" it was peaceful and the events that I witnessed while I was there were absolutely heartwarming! I wrote a book about the issues between Western Canada and Eastern Canada and the idea of separation. While I was in Ottawa, I saw Quebecer's and Western Canadians hugging and agreeing on issues that they have misunderstood each other on since the inception of this country! It wasn't a whites only episode either - there were people from all different ethnic and religious backgrounds - Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Christians, Indigenous, Blacks, Middle Eastern, Chinese, Europeans...you name it, they were all there. As for Rebel News - I've followed Ezra Levant for many years and have always said you have to take a handful of salt with his stories. It's not that he lies, it's just that he is extremely biased and exaggerated more like a tabloid than anything else. I have colleagues and friends who have worked for him, some love him some aren't so happy but ultimately, he covers things that a lot of media don't. I don't like the often "gottcha" style of Rebel News, but I appeciate their right to cover stories and object to them being harrassed, censored and bullied by other media outlets and our own government that is supposed to be encouraging the freedom of the press! On that note - Censorship in Canada is absolutely out of control! I have articles I wrote a couple of years ago that I put up on my FB feed back when I wrote them - because of Trudeau's censorship bills, they aren't visible on social media anymore - there's a graphic that comes up and says "this post is not available in Canada" - a Canadian reporter putting up content written by and for Canada and it's not available in Canada - riddle me that one and tell me again how democracy is still alive and well in Canada!? Back to the Trucker's protest - the Emergencies Act was used and now has been found illegal and unconstitutional and yet there will be no consequences for our government. People have sat in jail for two years, others have been dragged through the courts and still more have had their bank accounts frozen all for supporting a group of people who had enough of lockdowns and the insane and inconsistent rules/mandates being enforced against the people of Canada! That damage that was done has been far greater than what we lost - including the trust in our government and institutions! It is so obvious that your guest, though I assume highly educated and knowledgable on some things - outed himself as a biased and ill-informed spreader of misinformation himself. I'm afraid my first impression of him is not a good one. I realize that you try not to be biased yourself and try to learn from varying perspectives, and I would encourage you to listen to Viva Frei, a former Montreal, Canada litigator who has now moved to Florida because of everything that has gone on here in Canada. Another highly respected journalist is Rex Murphy. That is, of course, if you are at all interested in the death of democracy in such an open and pluraistic, liberal democracy like Canada once was. And I say that as someone who lived in Belfast, Northern Ireland during the troubles - I was a teenager and came to realize just how blessed I was to grow up in Canada. Sadly, that is currently not the case and I only hope that we can stop this degradation before any more harm is done. )Please note that I only touched the surface of what is going on here - there is more, much more and very frightening...and on your northern border.)
Canada is 100% communistic. Like Australia and most other countries now. It is also called globalism. The main stream media is the poison and the enemy of the people. The world is run by satanic paedophiles who are bribed and blackmailed by the few above them. But their end is near!
I tottaly agree
100%. Our family attended the trucker convoy protest in four different occasions and it was 100% peaceful. And they were 100% in the right.
Peaceful by honking night & day? By blocking the capital’s downtown? By blocking our major trading route with US? Are you that blind?
What happened to those? Truckers sounds very familiar to what happened to the people that were at the capital on January 6 because over 1000 people were arrested simply for standing in the grass or because capital police allowed them into the US Capitol and they said it was trespassing because it was closed due to COVID-19, etc. etc. but the people who broke windows which were probably around 12 people did make me angry. There were also people at the US Capitol that day, wanting to burn down the Capital and they were members of BLM and antifa, and there were also feds on the ground and we can tell by the videos because they’re bigger guys all dressed in black but they’re not Antifa or BLM because they’re too big and they had earpieces. The FBI Director was not being completely honest, and he just refused to answer the question when he was subpoenaed to come in to Congress, and he would just not answer the question about feds being on the ground that day. The capital police treated piece for people terribly and when people were walking along the grass they were shooting off tear gas and some other kind of chemical at them and started shooting plastic. Bluetooth these people and President Trump asked for 10,000 National Guard to be there January 2, January 3 fourth and fifth and speaker Pelosi denied every single request. !!!
Its not food companies lying its government lying, FDA USDA etc..
The Democracy card should stop being used as an excuse. In the name of Democracy lots of undemocratic decisions are being made.
I would say that this lost of trust on the "system" is happening in other countries, not just in America.
Most of those countries where trust has been lost are vassals of the U.S. Maybe it’s time those other countries unhooked themselves from the US such as Europe, UK, Australia, Canada, Japan etc.
It is true that info i being supressed there and here..They don't want us to know..anywhere..DAVOS SAID THEY WOULD DO IM MASS SCALE. America is there target..The One World Order will be shut down if Trump is president..
I cannot seem to post truth . Re Davos interfence.
@@KariKreps-ps3jxno one can post truth anymore
Yes, but we set the tone, abroad people listen and many still believe in the american media like cnn.
Great interview, Tom. I am thoroughly impressed with Ian Bremmer. It is clear from the comments that the sense of community amongst different politicial spectrums is lacking in Europe as well as the US - I hope that we will be able to pull our democratic societies out of this state.
This is exactly what someone would say prior to a civil war breaking out lol
Yeah I mean, he failed to convince me with his entire argument beginning the very moment after he said the word 'no'. The mere fact that this subject is on the table right now & is being brought up within such a high-tension atmosphere - says a lot, to say the least.
Exactly I am moving to a new country before Civil War happens. To move after it starts will be extremely hard for multiple reasons.
I do not agree with the leading indicator of how one feels about the economy is political affiliation. Its the cost of food, gas, electricity. If you are routinely shocked by food prices how can you feel positive about the economy.
work harder, reduce your costs where possible.
@@lpslancelot05 Even if you take income out of it, things are simply way more expensive. It is not only hurting people it is hurting businesses as well.
It's harder for the average Joe to find a job that isn't flipping burgers, and even that job alone is practically useless to have considering inflation has made the wages for flipping burgers impossible to live off of. The audacity of this guy to say "tHe eCoNoMy iS sTrOnG"
@@gsxr8021 I agree, things are more expensive. This is not in doubt. Where we may disagree is what should be done about it. I do not believe we have any control over it, complaining about it doesn't help. All we can do is improve our situations. Most people spend their time complaining, rather than actually improving their current situation. One is emotional (complaining), the other is logical and masculine (reason).
@@PricelessBinkey1337 I rent rooms out of my house, and I have guys who flip burgers and can afford to live a decent lifestyle. It's not impossible, but it is difficult. No amount of complaining will change this. Which they sometimes do. I tell them, if you consider history, their lifestyles are akin to wealthy people. Clean home, food meat, ac, internet. It's just the standard of the "basics" has risen, and the inequality makes people feel less worthy (emotional).
Economy is perrfect for the only people that matter, the rich and corporations
End Stage Capitalism is slow and grinding. Acid Capitalism has no cure. We are in the midst of one, just can’t tell yet.
@@user-dj6hu9gq4tAmerica's in the beginning stages of socialism. With socialism comes anarchy, starvation, and civil unrest. Exactly, how the global elites are drawing it up. The New World Order. One world government, one world ruler, one world religion.
True
Correct.
Trump pulls us out of "agreements" not Treaties. "Agreements" violate Article II and Article VI
THIS GUY IS BLIND - DON'T BE LED BY THE BLIND
Love how Tom allowed him to talk himself right in to his bias and ultimately the corner.
Poor little Ukraine? .. 'Come on, man! ' - as the Resident would say....
That must be a 'first' for Tom. GG's Tom, you're getting better!
Always let a Leftist talk. Their lies are too enormous to ignore.
Elaborate. I haven't finished and I dont like this guys. Seems like a closet commusocialist globalist. Am I right?
I watched the whole thing. He has opposing views to mine but I didn't see bias. What bias?
I am an independent, i can tell you the middle class is suffering right now. Everyone i know is negatively affected by inflation, and it's not going to get better in the long term. It you are not feeling it, you are not in the middle class. You are in the upper middle class, or you are wealthy.
This guy says the economy is great so….
Even the wealthy feel it!!! Believe it or not!!! Not everyone has a few hundred billion in the bank ready for a rainy day!!!
So…. Must be true! 😂😂😂but seriously… we’re fucked. Like no matter who wins 😅😅😅
It’s much more than inflation, but Trump and his lackeys love blaming it all on inflation and therefore Biden. Our problem is clearly economic inequality. When the top 1% of Americans hold nearly 50% of the country’s wealth and the bottom 90% hold less than 25%, or when nearly 70% of Americans don’t have $1000 to spend even in an emergency, bringing inflation back down to 2.5% is like giving a pancreatic cancer patient a bandaid. If you want to keep voting for the crazy bandaid guy, you can, but it’s not going to fix the problem.
How does us paying for Democrats open border invasion help American families? 10 million illegals with 1 year to go.
The government is supposed to be for the people by people not the self interest of a minority group.
These discussions grossly undestimate the impact of Climate Change and many of the countrys and regions discussed here will be unable to feed themselves particularly with their exploding population rates !
Describing the democracy nowaday in the U.S and saying it didn’t worked and function like this!?? PLEASE. It has always worked liked that, but now its out in the open for everybody to see.
Just like the host saying that maybe the way to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is to give Palestinians a sense of security & a bright future !!!!Uhhh? Who took that away from them to begin with 🙄..
Up until BIDEN there wasn't the use of Lawfare to get rid of an opponent, or BLUE states taking someone off the presidential ballot, all while saying the other side was fascist.
@@pastexpiry2013B Y’all are playing with Fire and you will be to blame when Amerikkka lays out it’s Nazi plans .. this is not a game
@@pastexpiry2013B Before Trump, there was no reason to. No President had tried to stop the peaceful transfer of power after losing an election.

Facts don’t care about your feelings!
Are you kidding me, Canada us doing better on democracy than the US? Canada seems like it has taken away free thought. I hope we aren't worse!
Think he is talking about 'Our democracy ' Which is completely different to what the person sees on the street democracy.
You are right
Agree with you !
Oh it’s better in Canada than the US alright.
Canadian here, I don’t even recognize this place anymore. I feel like we are being drained from every possible angle. It’s becoming harder and harder to stay afloat.
I can never understand when people like this say "America has the strongest economy in the world." When more than half of the inhabitants can't afford to buy a house ot pay their taxes without starving to death or going further into debt.
Then you understand how hard it is for the rest of the world.
The GDP is 1.7! How does that represent a economy doing well. Ive never seen it that low in my lifetime before.
From 1947 thru 2024 gnp growth has averaged 3.19. GNP growth: 2021 - 5.95; 2022 - 1.94 ; 2023 - 3.4. Guessing u r looking at quarterly number. Think he said economy is doing well just not many Americans doing well. In other words, business, stockholders, investors, risk takers doing well but not average worker who works as an hourly wage employee. If u listen closely the guest sympathies r with the populist movement
I stopped when I learnt he said, Social media is threat to democracy. I guess we have to be sheep and follow mainstream media.
This guy is kind of a joke
Yeah I'm out 5 minutes in when this guy said NOT giving Ukraine 61billion is a threat to America. I don't think so
Heres why i think the USA in 2024 will NoT have a presidential election ; 2013 in China 🇨🇳 A two-term limit on the figurehead presidency was deleted from the #Chinese Constitution earlier, prompting suggestions that he ( Chinese leader #Xi Jinping ) might stay in power for life. 🤔 2020 in Russia 🇷🇺 Vladimir #Putin was first elected as president in 2000. His current term ends in 2024, but the new amendments in 2020 will allow him to stay in office for another 16 years. ( 2040 ) 🤔 2021 in Canada 🇨🇦 The Prime Minister has been in power since 2015. If PM win elections , they can only serve 2 consecutive 4-year terms. In 2021 , #trudeau lost the majority government , yet changed some of the rules . Today, He is still in 2023-2024. 🤔 2024 in USA 🇺🇸 Do you actually believe there will be an election ? Ask yourself this 1 question ; If you had to choose only between Option 1 : Have a 2024 US elections, But start ww3. or Option 2 : no 2024 US elections, And no ww3. ( probably only US civil war or something ) Share your comments below ⚖️
Yeah this guest sucks
If you stop listening every time someone offends a bias you have, you’ll never be anything more than a partisan hack.
Thank goodness so many listeners have seen through the overall political bias of this discussion. It has destroyed the overall conversation.
Agreed 👍
Absolutely agreed. Saw it in less than 5 mins. Worst episode I’ve ever seen on impact theory
True. 20 minutes in and I'm out. He can go phuch himself.
I learned that they're trying to peddle the services economy>>industrial economy idea. More thin air among a long list of things they're trying to monetize in order to keep their assets safe, and always at the expense of the taxpayer.
TRUMP RESTORED FOR 2020, 2024
I’m sorry but I am a single mother and can’t afford food for my family. I work 50-60 hours a week. 10 hour days. Rent, Insurance, and everything else has gone up and I can no longer afford to live. I’ve almost been homeless with my kids due to inflation twice this past year. I can’t afford clothes shoes we don’t go out and do anything fun. My money goes straight to bills and whatever food I can get after. I don’t know how much longer I can struggle to hold on. I know I’m not alone. Wake up people. We are struggling out here.
I suggest voting for Trump in 2024. I’m not saying he’s the countries salvation, but I’m sure he will keep us out of war, and at least attempt to fix the border and other things. Immigration drives down the wages and drives up the cost of housing because the immigrants need a place to live to. This is simple supply and demand economics. You cannot argue with it. There are no countries with high rents and low wages that do not have massive amounts of immigration, they do not exist. There Hass to be a moratorium on immigration and tell Americans have living wages, and the ability to pay the rent. Not a dime for the Ukraine or Israel until you fix the problem in Hawaii and the problem with the homeless vets here I know it’s a pipe dream , but you have to push as hard as you can. We have homeless shelters all over the country and they keep expanding and you see them in new places all the time the corruption needs to end.
10:10 "we get something that looks more like Peru, or Hungary" No one was jailed or prosecuted in Hungary. Actually the US is way ahead of Hungary in that regard and quite frankly it's astonishing to witness this happening under an allegedly democratic US administration. Trying to imprison a candidate to presidency is something that not even Hungary wouldn't dare doing.

All onside. Hey Mr. Expert, we are not a Democracy we are a Constitutional Repubblic a big difference.
Nope, you're wrong.
In the 1990s a breakthrough agreement negotiated between Israeli and Palestinian leaders in Oslo, Norway, set out a process for a mutually negotiated two-state solution to be gradually implemented by the end of the decade. Although the process showed initial promise and progress, a combination of dissatisfaction and distrust led to the breakdown and delay of the process. After frustration and provocation led to the outbreak of violence in 2000, the process proved difficult to restart before coming to a virtual halt after 2008.
On the issue of the border, why does Ukraine funding for their war need to be tied with border?
They tie the boarder to the Ukraine, to get republicans to drive it to the public.
Don’t kid yourself, our government is corrupt. And if we didn’t have the 2nd amendment, Tiananmen Square would wash across America like a wild fire.
How else are crooked politicians going to get rich if they stop the funneling and money laundering through Ukraine?
It was a tactic to get the DIMs on board with a better border policy. For them to take it seriously. We will give you Ukraine funding for a better border. It failed, now, when they passed the Ukraine funding without the border in the bill. We should be doing single item bills for funding.
Repub want border closed, Dems want money they can give Ukraine and get kick backs. Dems will not close border...Ukraine does not get money. Its called negotiating
Tom needs to put a date of the actual recording in the titles. It's so obvious that this was recorded a couple weeks ago even before Ian mentioned it was being done on the 26th. The same applies to ALL of Tom's interviews. An ACTUAL recording date in the title would be a GREAT HELP in trying to understand these recordings in context with actual events they are talking about.

We as a society need to stop using the word “democracy” we’re a constitutional republic. PERIOD.
The US has long been regarded as a DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC. A Republic because you don’t have a monarchy.

It would not surprise me a bit if the nextcatastrophe wasn't done by some undocumented citizen here to do us harm.

It is easy to love/admire Japan when you have not lived in Japan for more than 7 years. I say 7 years, because that is the time that most expats leave Japan for pension or tax refund reasons. If you are a gaijin who stays beyond 7 years, your experience of Japan changes greatly. I know this to be true, as I lived in Japan for 22 years. It is not so easy to keep on loving/admiring Japan when you experience a full life in the country.

Having only two political parties is the biggest difference between the USA and other democracies... and thus there is no political safety net of a third party or a combination government.. the extremes in the USA two parties grow more extreme and that's dangerous.. no place for moderates to go..

@@glennwhite3286 That may be, but the Democrats have also gone to the extreme that has equally threatened and angered moderate Republicans.. I mean the ludicrous situation where a government does not accept that a man cannot be woman nor a woman a man, and anyone who says this is true is in most cases fired from their position whatever their job on society.. And legalising bodily mutilation of minors?? ..when for decades have opposing genital mutilation by some other cultures 🤭😂 Seriously!! And teaching in schools that a man can become a woman and a woman a man which they know to be a physical impossibility... The fact that is no third party to avoid these extremes of both parties dominating legislation is a problem for the USA. There can be no or little mixed views in the parliament debate because it functions only like two football teams that are more focused on beating other than all debating seriously what is best for the country.. and any few independents if there are any have little control. A typical example is the current situation which makes the USA political system and those in it look like idiot bullies in a school playground. One party demands border controls, then when they get that, they have a tantrum, no we won't allow border control from you, we want to do it. .. playing stupid political games and refusing to do their job for a whole year that they are paid by those who elected them to do....why are they still being paid? And they are doing this because they are waiting for the outcome of the next election hoping that Trump will be elected and he will say - see only I could fix the border situation... when he publicly told elected representatives not to do so now this month when it could be done. Putin must be have a field day of laughs watching these children in the USA pretending they can govern a country. It's embarrassing to see but unfortunately not surprising.. and of course it's all to his advantage..

Ian Bremmer's perspectives on measuring a country's global impact according to its economic capabilities is relatively correct, the wars in Africa do have global impacts. Remember we have access only to a certain kind of knowledge or set of facts. When discussing economic crises, democratic crises, a global vision or perspective could be better than just naming two or three countries as the sole protagonists of the history of our time.
