Emanuel's point about AIG and the auto bailouts getting their money back is often forgotten in the "socialism" debates. The contrast with current industrial policy where the government takes equity stakes and stays in is sharp. What struck me more though is the adversary framing versus competitor. When he lays out China's win-lose model and how its designed to holllow out industrial bases globally, that changes the entire strategic calculus around engagement and decoupling.

Rahm is another political hack. Whatever...

Hosting obvious partisans is not becoming of this publication. Claims like "everything Trump has done is bad" do not edify. China Talk is not supposed to be like CNN talking head partisan obfuscation

Well, every politician is a partisan and sometimes it’s interesting to have politicians! Having them be like 5% of the guests adds to the mix I think
