Silicon Valley Turns Anti-China. Why Steven Pinker Doesn't Get the Causes of War. Pompeo Won't Survive Impeachment. Making Enemies of Friends. | Ep. 13
Silicon Valley might be turning against China. Steven Pinker is wrong about violence and needs to take a security studies course. There are no more US officials with gravitas. Trump's 5-dimensional chess is going to end with a Kurdish-Iranian alliance. Career advice for an aspiring China hand. And will Van Jackson ever move back to Washington?
Van's Predictions:
Will Pompeo survive until 2020? No
Will China sacrifice Carrie Lam by 2020? Yes
Will Giuliani be arrested by the end of 2019? No
Will China and the US sign a grand bargain deal by the end of 2020? No
Will US troops withdraw from Syria by 2020? No
