Ian Bremmer on Trump’s Mideast Trip and What It Means for the U.S.

Season 2025 Episode 7232 | 18m 01s

President Trump may have opened the door for the Gulf to become the next global AI hotspot. Years ago Ian Bremmer laid out the idea of a "technopolar world" - increasingly shaped by a handful of powerful tech companies rather than solely by states. Bremmer is the founder of the Eurasia Group, and joins the show to discuss how Trump's visit to the Mideast could be taking us closer to that vision.
