On Fareed Zakaria GPS Today

January 6, 2019

On Today's Show

On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN:

First, Fareed gives his Take on how Donald Trump has transformed the presidency in his first two years and what to expect from the next two. "Trump thrives in an atmosphere of chaos, where all attention is focused on him and nothing is ever normal or settled," Fareed says. "As the pressure increases from the House Democrats, Robert Mueller and China, expect more impulsive, emotional decision-making, not less."

Fareed then hosts a live panel on global threats to watch in 2019 
with David Miliband, former British foreign secretary, Rana Foroohar, global business columnist for the Financial Times, and Ian Bremmer, President of the Eurasia Group. Will the world economy sink into recession? Will US troop withdrawal destabilize the Middle East? Will populist revolts continue to roil Europe?

China was riding high this week after making history by landing a rover on the far side of the moon. However, storm clouds may be on the horizon for the Chinese economy, as Apple announced weaker-than-expected sales there. Is the US-China trade war finally starting to bite? Fareed talks with Michael Pillsbury, Director for Chinese Strategy at the Hudson Institute and "the leading authority on China" according to President Trump.

Finally, life is full of big decisions. How can we give ourselves the best chance of making the right decision? There's much more to it than making a pros and cons list, says Steven Johnson, author of "Farsighted: How We Make the Decisions That Matter the Most."
