About information. To comprehend is the ability to discuss information. What people understand is the effect on their life. There is a major difference between comprehension and actual understanding

China is on the rise.not on the decline.

@KbRonG February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

The issue is exports. Prosperity is a result of exports not domestic consumption

Also as the wealthy get richer with an environment provided by government they should pay taxes as a thank you Unfortunately a reasonable rate has been blocked by republicans. Time to bring back intelligent legislation

…what utter crap….

China has become rich, has gained high technological development and gained more power because of the billionaires. The billionaires who moved manufacturing and technology (that was copied, used by China) to China just to make even more money, for the billionaires. So the culprits of China's power are the billionaires, who helped China economically and technologically, just to get more money.

TRUMP WANTS TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN…BUT ALL HE HAS DONE IS TO MAKE AMERICA LOOK SMALL AND STUPID…….

@georgemiller6765 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Soon he will have his dogs coming after all who post their opinion if not favorable.

@williamsolomon940 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

This guy barely has half a clue what he's talking about. Assertion after assertion with no analysis. All of the cold war president had a great instinct for foreign policy? What? Are these presidents in the room with us now?

The beginner of the END 😸

17:42 A new era for American democracy? What we're seeing now is that Republicans claim to champion free speech, but at the same time, they're silencing voices that challenge their system. Take Musk banning X users who hold differing views on H1-B visas, for example. They also allow lies/hate speech, hiding behind the idea of free speech. Online hate is on the rise, with threats against the lives of vulnerable communities. While this has also impacted liberal voices in the past, we need to ask ourselves: Who is really benefiting from "free speech"? Is it a broad group of people who want to ensure that every part of the community feels safe, or a small, powerful minority intent on maintaining control by sacrificing and demonizing marginalized groups?

TRUMP AND MUSK….RULING THE WORLD TOGETHER…A TEAM…. JOE BIDEN Spent four years destroying our economy with record gasoline prices. .huge inflation ….high rent…homeless….DEMOCRATS SUCK !!

America is heading at full speed into a civil war!!

@mussaratahmad5649 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

UK is responsible for all this mess

@bensoncheung4196 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Nothing last forever. The legacy of the US being a world leader has come to an end. They will not be able to recover. There will be a new world order coming as rhe American leadership start to fade away. America will only be great again for the inward looking American people only.

@rogermccallum4466 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Democracy is more than just a vote.Usa at the moment is an Empire of nothing and only cruel friends

@NlightNm3 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Sorry Belle. I'm in mourning. Aristotle said about 2400 years ago. And our founders were very aware of greed destroying democracy.

@charliecheng3340 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

This guy is BS . Netanyahu is running the US . Netanyahu directing many previous presidents that the US needs to topple 7 nations in 5 years in the Middle East . The last one in the Middle East is Iran . He knows it’s Iran but he does not want to mention it’s Netanyahu that is running the US presidency.

@Haveatit93 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Dr. Kaplan, do you want to have a discussion with. Syrian or a Libyan or an Iraqi about whether American might is a force for good?

@9PMTrader February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Musk is planning Going to Mars, He is taking Trump to Mars by robbing all of us.

@garybarr1045 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Trump's election is evidence that American voters are a bunch of fools. End of story.

@photosbyernesto9621 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

I think this guy forgets that the empires, from Britain, Spain, France, Germany, Belgium, etc, and finally, the US, have created the disarray and violence in Africa, South-East Asia, and Central and South America. The US has not been a saviour or anyone's friend. The US foreign policy has always been about putting the US and US businesses first.

@LegallyTruth February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Final nail in the coffin. Printing 5 trillion and giving in loans not to be paid back to corporations. For your information, this is done under last term of current prez. This guy somehow forgets that.

@villagepatrick6376 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

“The Middle East was relatively quiet for decades”

Excuse me?!

@VanNie123-v2z February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

January 20, 2025, will go down in history as an important date for the incorporation of the USA as the 23rd republic of the Russian Federation.

@SteveMalcolm0 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

Speaking as an economist, this guy has no idea what hes talking about. There has never before on earth been a country as rich as Anerica today. Cherry picking global manufacturing share … thats old tech now that anyone can do. He wants americans making cheap plastic sneakers instead of doing pharma tech and AI and high value add?

@jonathanmills116 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

There will not be global chaos. Almost all nations will simple enter into sensible dialogue with each other, and there will be a new power convergence on groups covering EU, China, India, SE Asia, and Latin America.

@sheldonsmith1294 February 22, 2025 - 11:17 pm

The US was already the most hated country in the world. Now the people are actually saying it.
The funny thing is that most Americans are oblivious to this.
