I think holding corporations more accountable makes sense BUT something FAR more important is holding Government Officials themselves far more accountable! FAR greater transparency and accountability is necessary otherwise everything else is pointless and will ultimately just make matters worse not better!
Virtually everything that the State does is based on immorality (ie: aggression). What does it mean to ‘hold accountable’ the individuals legally employed to act immorally? Take, for a simple example, the IRS agent who takes our earnings by threat of force, an act that when committed by anyone else, we call ‘theft’.

Well, Pompeo is a self-serving opportunist, true autocrat, and proved himself a loyal Trump sycophant the last time around. I don’t see why he can’t weasel his way into the next Trump administration, should there be one…
I would rather have a collaborative leader that listens to many people around them. No matter how informed or experienced events are constantly changing. It is always wise to seek opinions of as many as possible. The older people are the more they feel that they’ve seen and they know, and they aren’t as likely to ask others. That can be deadly.

I can't help that every time I hear the name Ian Bremer I rememebr what a huge mess he made in Iraq by dismantling the military. He left nothing to work with.
This is a very interesting conversation. I would be concerned about a leader who is making decisions without any kind of transparency or without listening to experts or people in their own cabinets.
Trump did not do that the last time he was president, he won’t do it this time, I don’t buy what this guy is saying, Trump hired people who were familiar with the topics they were hired for in regards to foreign policy, his presidency at its core was about building up America, he will focus on that mission again, the foreign policy will be handled by the usual suspects, will Trump make decisions? Forsure, but if it’s a dumb position there will be push back from the CIA and Trump inevitably listened to them his last time being president, no new wars remember that, the hate he gets comes from people who benefit financially when there is conflict on the horizon, Trump threatens that money train by saying he will end the Ukraine war & Gaza War, I’d much rather have a president who is fundamentally against people dying, not one who feeds the war machine.
@@brianstewart2271 No, He maded it very very clear it was the way Trump has always proceeded, listening to no-one. Actually he is excellent at self-destructing as his mental capacity goes, like his father at about the same age.
Peace is when the US will stop interfering in other countries. They send billions for money in weapons and their citizens don't even have basic free access to healthcare. Truly the worst country to exist.
Do not pray for it. Work for it. Be active and actually learn what it at stake. Make an informed decision. (For my opinion on the matter. Do not vote for Trump. He is very much not informed on how the world works. I like closed to Ukraine and have experience with how Russian Government operate. They have been aggressive since the breakup of USSR for sure, but even more lately. They're using the old play book of trying to sew decent by supporting extremist in countries around them. Old divide and conquer tactic. When they talk about a multipolar world, they mean one where 3 superpowers control the world. An American, European and Asian block. Where they control their European side of things, China gets Asia, and USA can stay in their own corner in America. Not because they like America, but because they know they can not really influence North and South America. This is not a secret. Just listen what they talk about. Sometimes they're vague about their intentions. But there are plenty of time they have just gone totally face off. Nothing indicates that Trump with actually be the man we need to be tough against the Russians. If anything, he might just prolong the war by removing support. And this would be seen as a clear win by Russia. And in turn it would prove that Russia is being right about being aggressive will give them what they want. Cost wise this has not actually been expensive for the USA since what USA has donated have mainly been surplus stock that they needed to get rid of anyway. And now you save on disposal fees. So it not a matter of cost but a matter of what image. USA economy is so vastly more potent that Russia that USA can easily just overpower the Russian economy is raw output. Shorting the war with greater support would end more quickly. And also show anyone else in the world that tries to copy that old Russian play book that it does not work. How the war in Ukraine will not only inform the Russians on how to conduct themselves in the world. But also other authoritative states trying to influence the world at this moment though warfare and hybrid warfare. And yes. I might be following the politics and economics of this as a bit to much. But you would likely do so too if you lived a few min from Russia striking distance.)
And that son in law was instrumental in getting the Abraham Accords pushed through that gave us more peace in the Middle East than we’ve seen in years. Then Biden/Harris take power and magically multiple wars erupt. Interesting 🤔

( Iran is bombing our Allies, Iran is finacinf Hammas and Hezboillah ! ... and Biden is "quagmired" in - UN-WINNABLE - WAR in UKRaine ... Oy Vey ! )
I can agree with some points and disagree with another point but the bottom line remain that you are very detailed and some how convincing in your expressions. TED never disappoints
This interview was very interesting. I used to listen to Ian Bremmer on Charlie Rose. He's dynamite as a commentator. He always comes up with new ideas and new important facts to consider in the balance. I don't buy everything he says, but my shopping is always ticked heavily after hearing him. Well done TED. You are Up There with such interviews.
Imported labor is largely in the agricultural sector which is seasonal. If wages went up in agg, it would make more sense for young people. Particularly 17-20 year olds, who are still figuring their lives out. If they have an opportunity to work hard for a summer or 3 while they decide what to do next, they can get off to a better start. Food prices will rise in the near term but automation is driving down prices in the long term. More importantly more income for young people is more stimulatory for the rest of the economy than remittances. Remittances aren’t even that good for the recipient economy because they don’t get the value that was generated by the labor.
All I know is that with 12 years lost in the U.S. in the fight against global warming during GQP administrations, we can't stand anymore climate change denying politicians at the local, state, or federal levels. We lost 8 years during the 'it will hurt the economy' W. Bush administration and 4 years during the 'it's a hoax' Trump administration. The only thing which will save us from more of the same is younger voters taking charge of their futures and voting in mass for their future and the future of the planet.
Climate change isn’t even the top 10 issue people care about. We’re not going to get rid of climate change by switching to electric everything, electric still requires coal & gas, it doesn’t just come from solar panels, this is the problem when people care about certain issues but don’t know how we get there, the electric vehicle mandates will kill American automotive industries if we have to switch to them by 2030, we cannot run an entire country on solar, wind & hydro, that may work for small countries like the UK but not the US, we can actually protect our world by preventing pollution clean oceans, & clean air, are far better initiatives, all of which can be done without getting rid of fossil fuels. The entire world has to fall in line if we want to prevent “global warming” from getting any worse via smoke stacks, of which the entire world is not aligned, China & Russia will not switch to the alternative energy sources and they’re the biggest polluters, we can’t chop the US’s feet off while other countries are still benefiting from fossil fuels, you’re just asking to be replaced as the worlds super power.
So you’re saying climate change stopped during democratic presidencies? Look at the 8 billion they spent on charging station and tell me how that’s gone
Thank you for a presentation that was unbiased. It's been terrible to listen to any of the rhetoric recently due to such partisan leaning. Again thank you.
A very objective analysis, which doesn't show a bias towards Harris or Trump. Despite this, the Trump fans and bots are out in full force in the comments section. This is deeply disturbing, because this guy should be praised for his objectivity and insightful analysis.
Many of those bots are actually Russian. There is a huge disinformation campaign going on to help Trump whobis viewed in Moscow as reliably pro-Russian.
Voting is actually quite simple. Just vote for the one you think has a bigger heart, which is obviously not to be taken literally. ^^ In the end, the president has people advising him/her, and it's important that whoever makes the final decision has a big heart to do the right thing for the majority of the population. The hard part about voting is overcoming your own GREED...
I havent taken Ian seriosuly since his comments on Ukraine in 2022. But happy to listen to this...presumably because Ian knows something about elections.
I'm having some of the same reaction but i do think Bremmer is honest. He's not a domestic policy person. And he's not into politics. He's about foreign policy. So while Trump may be disastrous for domestic circumstances i think Bremmer is trying to look only at what actually happened in the past to predict the future. That said, i think he grossly underestimates the degree to which Trump's future will have more to do with who pleases him than with what he's done in the past.
Thanks for calling out the insouciance of this nation's wealthy. They take democratic law and order for granted. But that's how the French and Russian nobility thought, too.
I don’t think that this guy is paying attention to what Trump is saying he is going to do now as opposed to what he actually did in the past. And as far as his comments about how all his worries about possible violence after the election who put that into play? Trump started this narrative as soon as he became the candidate of the C GOP back in 2016. This guy isn’t seeing the threat that Trump poses to democracy.
You’re clearly not paying attention to what Trump is saying either bc nothing suggests that he is going to become a dictator, that’s why you don’t hear credible analyst and professionals talking about that, bc it’s a non issue, not bc they aren’t paying attention. It sounds like you’re watching cut up clips taken out of context, not his entire interviews, there is only one party talking about limits to free speech, and fundamentally changing the constitution, it’s not “MAGA”
@@joachimpetersen2301the guy calls to terminate the constitution, calls to remove us from NATO, worships dictators, calls to fire left wing military, calls to imprison his political opponents, and calls to use the military against American citizens who oppose him. Hitler didn’t rise to power over night, this veteran is going to take Trump by his word. When he speaks LISTEN! Veterans for Harris. Stop betting our freakin lives because you choose to ignore the clear threat in your face.
You hear Bremmer explained his reasoning in this video. So to you, what reasons you don’t like? Or you just said “he’s biased “ because You like Trump?
@@donalddonald8617 From the start, I can see a negative emotion-as a professional, you can express your thoughts neutrally. Let's say his reasoning shows a negative emotion. This is my personal impression.
You lost me when you said that trump would end the Ukraine war quickly. Giving up Ukraine territories to Russia - this is trump’s solution. Please stop this b/s and good bye.
Ian does not try to tell what's right, he just tries to tell what candidates are likely to do. And I think he did a good job at that. Maybe some sanewashing on Trump's side, though.
Ian’s descriptions of what might happen in Ukraine are all unworkable. I’m no foreign policy expert but the little that I know, neither scenario is at all realistic. Why would either side stop fighting at this point? Russia being given the option to restrengthen and rearm through a loose treaty without no nato membership ultimately brings WWIII and puts Americans at direct risk. I’m pretty disappointed to hear such a naive take from a “foreign policy expert”.
Hm, I think Ian described the directions these two admistrations would go, which seemed very plausible to me. Whether the attempts would be successful, that's another matter.
@@innerestless why would nato membership suddenly stop the fighting? Wouldn’t it just mean that American boots would be required by the treaty to set foot in ukraine?
@@ExploreVanIsle No one in their right mind would grant NATO membership to a country at war with a nuclear state. That would cause WWIII the same hour. NATO membership is only possible after a peace deal... Oh, right, Putin then has an incentive to never allow that...
Upheaval, change,revolution,evolution. Things end and begin. Most people are very uncomfortable with change. Clinging and grasping to outmoded ways. The world is changing. Climate, people, governments. We need to embrace change and step up to the challenges. To support the lives and livelihood of people everywhere
They are though. Harris' latest policy is to close the border. And border crossing numbers are currently mirroring what they were at the end of trumps presidency. So she's definitely gone more to the right with her immigration stance.
Ya Kalmala has flopped from "no problem, no wall," to "its your fault and I supported a bill" after political pressure was undeniable. Trump's wall bad Kamala's wall good.
@@timsmith2848yea the only reason trump didn’t finish the wall in his only term is because Mexico didn’t give up the money. Kamala will get Mexico to pay and the wall will be bigger and better with the name Harris plastered all over it in pure gold for all to see
No, of course he can be serious. Biden and the republicans had a policy ready to fix the border but Trump told republicans to vote against it so the he can run on border crisis. If they had voted for the border bill then there would be no more border crisis for Trump to run on.
On the point about the election and the peaceful transition of power, I generally agree with Ian’s analysis on the potential for violence. If Harris is defeated, she knows the importance of sustaining the tradition of passing the torch without violence. She will do so, difficult though it may be. She has my vote because I fully expect she will model maturity and patriotism regardless of electoral outcome. If Trump loses, all bets are off. This is why he is unacceptable.
@@imago57 Quick question: In 2020, Trump was the nominee. He did lose that race, but how many primary challengers did he have? Zero. Did you throw up a fuss then? Harris as VP absolutely has credible experience. It’s a question of character. Trump is unpredictable and a danger to democracy. He’s it for person power and to flee a jail sentence.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. It has been incredibly valuable to me. I look forward to the opportunity to learn more from you in the future.
The mainstream media did the same with Harris. She never won one delegate. Cackles like a fool. Did nothing about the border. Won't do interviews unless they are scripted. A really bad answer to Trump.
He totally ignores Bidens policy changes that led to the current level of conflict in the middle east. Also totlly softballed Bidens total flaccid response.
26:46 - Drawing the current lines between the UK and Russia is complex! Anyone have insights? 28:40 - The EU and NATO’s unity is inspiring! Poland’s long-term commitment is clear with nearly 4% of GDP invested in defense, and Germany’s €6 billion bonus ($6.48 billion) underscores a powerful example. Strong commitments can set the stage for a better future. 32:28 - We need more positive examples to follow worldwide 🌍💙! Good leadership can truly change the world, as Ian Bremmer points out at 48:28. Immigration - Similar trends in Germany, where even the center-left supports tighter regulations. Misinformation - At 48:28 and beyond, there are critical insights here. 💙💙 After the election, wishing the best for everyone. No one should be driven to extremes, especially not for Trump. It’s essential to remember that the democratic system is worth trusting-it's lasted longer than any of us have been alive, unlike the constantly evolving media landscape.
All anyone needs to do, is look at the current state of the country, and listen to a few of Kamalas interviews, to make an informed vote come November 🤷♂️
@@Kyp031 Yes indeed, because any logical person only needs to hear a few moments of her speaking to know the answer. I also stated previously to look at the current state of the country, she's been co-pilot for 4 years now, what's her excuse? Don't try and act superior to others, or more of an intellectual, because you are not.
Yeah it's not exactly freedom of speech - in a sense misinformation impedes on other's free speech by preventing them from forming perspectives grounded in reality rather than a particular narrative
@@landmimesand who gets to decide what misinformation is ? The government? The same that lied under Busch to get into a war, the same that lied during covid and then backpedaled ? A lot of truths today were once labeled conspiracy theories or misinformation. How to fight misinformation? By calling it out and spreading the real information, not by suppressing it.
And who determines what is misinformation ? Politicians ? Government ? That’ll work…… you have to at least give some thought to statements like this before you make them
@barryyoung when it's proven facts it's otherwise bullshit lies like the fema story , and the cats and dogs being eaten by immigrants, if you respect those stores you find the original stores they stolen, it's media manipulation books have been written on how to do this
Who decides what’s false? You? Joe Biden? That’s a dangerous road you’re headed down with ideas like that. You know the original users of the word “misinformation” were? The Soviet Union when they were trying to cover up Chernobyl.
This is an excellent interview! I really appreciate the questions and all of the perspectives. I also appreciate that even though the interviewee leans to the left, I see that he is trying to stick with just the facts with neutrality and that is an integral way to be in my opinion.
But the inflation spike also correlates very strongly with oil price hikes, and those correlated directly with the 2020 OPEC deal that trump negotiated. Yet who gets the blame for it…
Yea. They will never put a former president in jail. If Trump wins, he'll just squash everything. If Harris wins, she'll pardon him with a "for the healing of the nation" speech. We never actually hold the rich/powerful accountable
The problem that Ian has with this interview is that it is difficult to compare the policies of Trump and Harris. On the one hand he has based his views on Trump by mentioning what Trump has said and done. On the other hand when it comes to Harris it is more difficult to determine actual policies due to the fact that she seems to have no clear policies only to state that she is "not Joe Biden", e.g. immigration, fracking etc. Btw I'm from Australia and have no personal interest in the outcome of this election, but I see that China, as we speak, is presently carrying out war games against Taiwan. Maybe I do have an interest in this election after all.
Everyone seems to be ignoring the (honest) elephant in the room... In the U.S. election, the vast majority of anti-Trump voter are NOT voting for Kamala, but are simply voting against Trump. Hatred and ignorance overrides common sense and the love for their country, resulting in voting for someone who the vast majority of Americans no not like. Weird stuff.
@@donalddonald8617 "Belief" is not evidence as in believing in propaganda. Joseph Goebbels (propaganda minister) wrote a speech for Hitler where it said: "“Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth”. Your truth as well as mine may not be true. Stay open and be diligent with research when looking at what you consider "evidence".
Open your eyes. Peel back the onion, and you basically have lawfare and a media propaganda blitz against DJT since 2015. We are not apologizing, we are done with the lies and no longer care. He is simply better than That loss Harris.
When someone succinctly sums up election in your country inaccurately, one can't help but wonder as to how accurate the rest of the statements are given that you don't know about them as much!
@@Hexanitrobenzene Election in India was not an election that signified that people were not happy. The overall vote % of BJP rose in this year compared to last election. Indian election results have been demonstrably attributed to two facts: 1) BJP distanced itself from RSS in several states and lack of RSS ground support had an adverse result in those locations. 2) Congress got into an alliance with bunch of state parties unlike last elections and consolidated votes by playing caste politics (i.e. wooing specific castes who are in majority who were suppressed in olden days) and religion politics. 3) The politics of announcing freebies and ruining the state finances thereafter. It was well accepted that Modi government had done all too well in progressing the country. And the major pain points of unemployment which the opposition should have raised a concern for had largely been ignored in favor caste politics and freebies. The sad part is that this actually works in India. In short, Ian Bremmer completely mischaracterized the Indian election as an election that signified people's dissatisfaction with Modi government's performance or general governance.
@@Hexanitrobenzene I am afraid the moderators don't like my honest response. Just research on your own. The truth is far from what Ian claimed. Lets see if this comment stays around.
I would have voted for DeSantis, so now I have to vote for the platform and policies. I was an unwanted pregnancy because my mom was scared. Why does Kamala believe that she had the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, but I didn't? Murder is never justified. Not to mention...allowing in a flood of people into the country illegally and unvetted...economic policies that clearly don't work as we see at the grocery store...appeasement instead of peace through strength...and flip-flopping on numerous policies in order to get elected rather than having true convictions.
Damn, this guy is giving the lifelong liar (and rapist, con artist, thief, etc) the benefit of the doubt. And I respect Bremmer as an intellectual. What an unfortunate point of view.
@@chrisshepley5832 I would say Obama was more extreme. Could never figure out how he got the Nobel Peace Prize when he was blitzing Libya, and then employing headchoppers to overthrow Assad in Syria. Bizarre.
Harris is a blithering fool who can’t answer a question, never won an elected delegate. The US has had no functional President for months now, run on automatic by some deep state cabal ejected by nobody, and you are saying it’s the opposition that’s unfit. WTH is wrong w you?
Collectivists vs Individualists? Safety vs liberty? Ian Rand vs Karl Marx? Blind bias vs acknowledging humanities shortcomings and chosing differently by personal choice not force?
Right off the bat, Ian Bremmer does not know what he is talking about. Inflation is at 2.4%, it was 2.5% in 2018 Immigration is at its lowest since 2021. If he can’t get these very basic facts correct, there is no need to waste my time listening to his opinions.
It seems you're conflating inflation rate with total inflation. Inflation rate (The rate at which prices are rising) are around 2.45% And we're at 1.4% when Trump left office... Under Biden it reached 6% - as a result, overall prices are still up 22% and rising at 2.4%
Hm, Ian was talking about the world in general when he mentioned migration and inflation. He was talking about many elections around the world this year and how they were for the change.
The key problem is that Europe is not mediating. The Europeans have the long term experience and of Russia and it’s in their interest to mediate. We are navel gazing. This guy however is very blue eyed when it comes to the Middle East if he thinks it’s game over. The aggression is not game over it’s only the beginning if the overwhelming violence doesn’t stop. What has it brought anywhere in the ME since 2001? Massive debt. Look at Afghanistan…. The west needs to talk and work together not just be told what to do by Wall Street and vulture capitalism. We need cooperation for the climate worldwide

Mr. Bremmer, thank you for explaining everything so well!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you for your accurate analysis, you did not demonize either of the candidates but spoke objectively
When a son-in-law can become a senior policy advisor without any qualification tells me Trump ran our country as a family business.
And that son in law was instrumental in getting the Abraham Accords pushed through that gave us more peace in the Middle East than we’ve seen in years. Then Biden/Harris take power and magically multiple wars erupt. Interesting 🤔
maybe because it is a business? If it were otherwise dems were not going to super interested in it.
it sure worked out for ISRAEL ( Embassy) , and for the Saudi Arabia ( no revolution ther ... and Saudis are sort of allies to ISRael, and USA ! ) ---- WIN WIN I believe
( Biden/Harris and his State Departmnet SCREWED UP just about anything they touched ! ( Iran is bombing our Allies, Iran is finacinf Hammas and Hezboillah ! ... and Biden is "quagmired" in - UN-WINNABLE - WAR in UKRaine ... Oy Vey ! )
So Harris not being voted into this position doesn't concern you?
And was successful
I can agree with some points and disagree with another point but the bottom line remain that you are very detailed and some how convincing in your expressions.
TED never disappoints
This interview was very interesting. I used to listen to Ian Bremmer on Charlie Rose. He's dynamite as a commentator. He always comes up with new ideas and new important facts to consider in the balance. I don't buy everything he says, but my shopping is always ticked heavily after hearing him. Well done TED. You are Up There with such interviews.
@jeanmorin3247 I also used to listen to Ian Bremmer on Charlie Rose. I miss Charlie on PBS.
@@margaretcameron1275 Well maybe he shouldn't have been exposing himself so much! Anyway, I see he is back with a book or something.
@amandabosca1714 No he certainly shouldn't have. I was very surprised he was found guilty of that. Will men ever learn??? 😮
Thanks for taking the time to properly edit the subtitles.
Wish everyone would take the same attitude.
Makes it much easier to watch at speed.
I always enjoyed listening to Bremmer.
Harris could not give a straight answer.
Her word salads did not work.
Imported labor is largely in the agricultural sector which is seasonal. If wages went up in agg, it would make more sense for young people. Particularly 17-20 year olds, who are still figuring their lives out. If they have an opportunity to work hard for a summer or 3 while they decide what to do next, they can get off to a better start. Food prices will rise in the near term but automation is driving down prices in the long term. More importantly more income for young people is more stimulatory for the rest of the economy than remittances. Remittances aren’t even that good for the recipient economy because they don’t get the value that was generated by the labor.
I connect with Helen at the end, I never bothered to show up and vote before, but I will start to vote in this election
Why? WTH would you make some a decision based on some preening media talking head? Think.
All I know is that with 12 years lost in the U.S. in the fight against global warming during GQP administrations, we can't stand anymore climate change denying politicians at the local, state, or federal levels. We lost 8 years during the 'it will hurt the economy' W. Bush administration and 4 years during the 'it's a hoax' Trump administration. The only thing which will save us from more of the same is younger voters taking charge of their futures and voting in mass for their future and the future of the planet.
Agreed. Keep saying it.
Climate change isn’t even the top 10 issue people care about. We’re not going to get rid of climate change by switching to electric everything, electric still requires coal & gas, it doesn’t just come from solar panels, this is the problem when people care about certain issues but don’t know how we get there, the electric vehicle mandates will kill American automotive industries if we have to switch to them by 2030, we cannot run an entire country on solar, wind & hydro, that may work for small countries like the UK but not the US, we can actually protect our world by preventing pollution clean oceans, & clean air, are far better initiatives, all of which can be done without getting rid of fossil fuels. The entire world has to fall in line if we want to prevent “global warming” from getting any worse via smoke stacks, of which the entire world is not aligned, China & Russia will not switch to the alternative energy sources and they’re the biggest polluters, we can’t chop the US’s feet off while other countries are still benefiting from fossil fuels, you’re just asking to be replaced as the worlds super power.

You're kidding, right? This was an hour of Trump propaganda
A very objective analysis, which doesn't show a bias towards Harris or Trump. Despite this, the Trump fans and bots are out in full force in the comments section. This is deeply disturbing, because this guy should be praised for his objectivity and insightful analysis.

@@SnooperSwizzle0728 Especially not the candidates.
Many of those bots are actually Russian. There is a huge disinformation campaign going on to help Trump whobis viewed in Moscow as reliably pro-Russian.

Voting is actually quite simple.
Just vote for the one you think has a bigger heart, which is obviously not to be taken literally. ^^
In the end, the president has people advising him/her, and it's important that whoever makes the final decision has a big heart to do the right thing for the majority of the population.
The hard part about voting is overcoming your own GREED...
I havent taken Ian seriosuly since his comments on Ukraine in 2022. But happy to listen to this...presumably because Ian knows something about elections.
Of all the media coverage to normalize Trump, none goes as far as this piece. I prefer Amanpour's motto: "Truthful, not neutral."
I'm having some of the same reaction but i do think Bremmer is honest. He's not a domestic policy person. And he's not into politics. He's about foreign policy. So while Trump may be disastrous for domestic circumstances i think Bremmer is trying to look only at what actually happened in the past to predict the future. That said, i think he grossly underestimates the degree to which Trump's future will have more to do with who pleases him than with what he's done in the past.
Sounds like you live in a bubble. The media just ĺìes about him all the time...
Honest is not slanderous enough for someone with TDS

I don’t think that this guy is paying attention to what Trump is saying he is going to do now as opposed to what he actually did in the past. And as far as his comments about how all his worries about possible violence after the election who put that into play? Trump started this narrative as soon as he became the candidate of the C
GOP back in 2016. This guy isn’t seeing the threat that Trump poses to democracy.
Yawn. Most people of over the BS lies of "trump's a threat to democracy". It's boring, come up with something better please.
if Trump is a threat then the first tools he can use are censorship laws perpetuated by the Democratic party
You’re clearly not paying attention to what Trump is saying either bc nothing suggests that he is going to become a dictator, that’s why you don’t hear credible analyst and professionals talking about that, bc it’s a non issue, not bc they aren’t paying attention. It sounds like you’re watching cut up clips taken out of context, not his entire interviews, there is only one party talking about limits to free speech, and fundamentally changing the constitution, it’s not “MAGA”

Stop betting our freakin lives because you choose to ignore the clear threat in your face.

He uses a lot of words to make simple and obvious points.
Slightly exaggerate? Donald exaggerates BIGLY and constantly. He's the best exaggerator. Nobody can exaggerate like him.

It seems Bremmer is biased-he does not like Trump. However, after this conclusion, I think his dislike influences his statements.

You lost me when you said that trump would end the Ukraine war quickly. Giving up Ukraine territories to Russia - this is trump’s solution.
Please stop this b/s and good bye.
Ian does not try to tell what's right, he just tries to tell what candidates are likely to do. And I think he did a good job at that. Maybe some sanewashing on Trump's side, though.
Ian’s descriptions of what might happen in Ukraine are all unworkable. I’m no foreign policy expert but the little that I know, neither scenario is at all realistic. Why would either side stop fighting at this point? Russia being given the option to restrengthen and rearm through a loose treaty without no nato membership ultimately brings WWIII and puts Americans at direct risk. I’m pretty disappointed to hear such a naive take from a “foreign policy expert”.
Hm, I think Ian described the directions these two admistrations would go, which seemed very plausible to me. Whether the attempts would be successful, that's another matter.
@@Hexanitrobenzene plausible for like 2-3 years, till russia rearms and march to Moldova, Kaliningrad, and beyond.
And in some 15-20 years you will have ukrainians+russians at Poland border and total chaos with nuclear proliferation - because US BS in Budapest.
@@innerestless why would nato membership suddenly stop the fighting? Wouldn’t it just mean that American boots would be required by the treaty to set foot in ukraine?

Climate, people, governments. We need to embrace change and step up to the challenges. To support the lives and livelihood of people everywhere
Did he actually say that Harris and Trump are becoming closer aligned on immigration policy? He can not be serious!!
They are though. Harris' latest policy is to close the border. And border crossing numbers are currently mirroring what they were at the end of trumps presidency. So she's definitely gone more to the right with her immigration stance.
Ya Kalmala has flopped from "no problem, no wall," to "its your fault and I supported a bill" after political pressure was undeniable. Trump's wall bad Kamala's wall good.
@@timsmith2848yea the only reason trump didn’t finish the wall in his only term is because Mexico didn’t give up the money. Kamala will get Mexico to pay and the wall will be bigger and better with the name Harris plastered all over it in pure gold for all to see
No, of course he can be serious. Biden and the republicans had a policy ready to fix the border but Trump told republicans to vote against it so the he can run on border crisis. If they had voted for the border bill then there would be no more border crisis for Trump to run on.
This could be the time where the choice for VP decides the election
On the point about the election and the peaceful transition of power, I generally agree with Ian’s analysis on the potential for violence. If Harris is defeated, she knows the importance of sustaining the tradition of passing the torch without violence. She will do so, difficult though it may be. She has my vote because I fully expect she will model maturity and patriotism regardless of electoral outcome.
If Trump loses, all bets are off. This is why he is unacceptable.
He will claim victory most likely before she concedes. That will put her in a difficult position of trying to prove otherwise.
@@michaelfrancis4736 He’s already claimed victory. And fraud. He’s such a toddler.

@@imago57 Quick question: In 2020, Trump was the nominee. He did lose that race, but how many primary challengers did he have? Zero. Did you throw up a fuss then?
Harris as VP absolutely has credible experience. It’s a question of character. Trump is unpredictable and a danger to democracy. He’s it for person power and to flee a jail sentence.

There is little justice in this world, sadly. The most we can do is to end this war in a way that it doesn't restart after several years.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. It has been incredibly valuable to me. I look forward to the opportunity to learn more from you in the future.
This is a fairly objective analysis, but at times Bremmer is charitable to Trump to the point of sanewashing him.
The mainstream media did the same with Harris. She never won one delegate. Cackles like a fool. Did nothing about the border. Won't do interviews unless they are scripted. A really bad answer to Trump.

I found a perspective you do not find in regular news. It was interesting & food for thought. I did learn some things.
26:46 - Drawing the current lines between the UK and Russia is complex! Anyone have insights?
28:40 - The EU and NATO’s unity is inspiring! Poland’s long-term commitment is clear with nearly 4% of GDP invested in defense, and Germany’s €6 billion bonus ($6.48 billion) underscores a powerful example. Strong commitments can set the stage for a better future.
32:28 - We need more positive examples to follow worldwide 🌍💙! Good leadership can truly change the world, as Ian Bremmer points out at 48:28.
Immigration - Similar trends in Germany, where even the center-left supports tighter regulations.
Misinformation - At 48:28 and beyond, there are critical insights here. 💙💙
After the election, wishing the best for everyone. No one should be driven to extremes, especially not for Trump. It’s essential to remember that the democratic system is worth trusting-it's lasted longer than any of us have been alive, unlike the constantly evolving media landscape.
All anyone needs to do, is look at the current state of the country, and listen to a few of Kamalas interviews, to make an informed vote come November 🤷♂️
Seriously
Which is why Harris will win, because she has solid plans, unlike the orange

And who determines what is misinformation ? Politicians ? Government ? That’ll work…… you have to at least give some thought to statements like this before you make them

It amazes me how many don’t understand the cause of inflation is monetary policy (which supports our out of control fiscal policy)
Inflation is happening world-wide, not just in the US, fuelled by Covid and corporate greed.
But the inflation spike also correlates very strongly with oil price hikes, and those correlated directly with the 2020 OPEC deal that trump negotiated. Yet who gets the blame for it…
The biggest thought was I'm not voting for a smart black woman. You can tell how many voted for Biden but not Harris.
Will Trump be able to escape the criminal charges???
Yea. They will never put a former president in jail. If Trump wins, he'll just squash everything. If Harris wins, she'll pardon him with a "for the healing of the nation" speech. We never actually hold the rich/powerful accountable
he'll have presidential immunity granted by 6 immoral supreme court judges so ya, he can legally do whatever the F he wants
Very insightful!
The problem that Ian has with this interview is that it is difficult to compare the policies of Trump and Harris. On the one hand he has based his views on Trump by mentioning what Trump has said and done. On the other hand when it comes to Harris it is more difficult to determine actual policies due to the fact that she seems to have no clear policies only to state that she is "not Joe Biden", e.g. immigration, fracking etc. Btw I'm from Australia and have no personal interest in the outcome of this election, but I see that China, as we speak, is presently carrying out war games against Taiwan. Maybe I do have an interest in this election after all.

@@Hexanitrobenzene Election in India was not an election that signified that people were not happy. The overall vote % of BJP rose in this year compared to last election. Indian election results have been demonstrably attributed to two facts: 1) BJP distanced itself from RSS in several states and lack of RSS ground support had an adverse result in those locations. 2) Congress got into an alliance with bunch of state parties unlike last elections and consolidated votes by playing caste politics (i.e. wooing specific castes who are in majority who were suppressed in olden days) and religion politics. 3) The politics of announcing freebies and ruining the state finances thereafter.
It was well accepted that Modi government had done all too well in progressing the country. And the major pain points of unemployment which the opposition should have raised a concern for had largely been ignored in favor caste politics and freebies. The sad part is that this actually works in India.
In short, Ian Bremmer completely mischaracterized the Indian election as an election that signified people's dissatisfaction with Modi government's performance or general governance.

Immigration is at its lowest since 2021.

It seems you're conflating inflation rate with total inflation. Inflation rate (The rate at which prices are rising) are around 2.45% And we're at 1.4% when Trump left office... Under Biden it reached 6% - as a result, overall prices are still up 22% and rising at 2.4%
