World Collapse Expert (Ian Bremmer): The Real Crisis Is What Comes After Trump

Geopolitical risk analyst Ian Bremmer examines the shifting global order, identifying the United States’ retreat from traditional leadership as the primary driver of international instability. This domestic political revolution, coupled with China’s long-term strategic investments in critical minerals and green technology, creates a volatile environment where traditional alliances are fraying. The discussion highlights the dual threats of AI-driven systemic risks—specifically regarding cybersecurity and labor displacement—and the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East. While current geopolitical tensions and the rise of powerful, unregulated technology companies present severe challenges, the path toward a more stable future requires urgent international arms control, the establishment of an AI stability board, and a renewed commitment to providing economic opportunities for the global population to prevent widespread social and political collapse.
