** 10-Nov-2019 World View: Neil Howe and war with China
Lol! That was a pretty wishy-washy answer, wasn't it.
Neil Howe and his spokesman David Kaiser have almost completely given
up the TFT theory, because they've turned it into a vehicle for
Democratic party politics.
The original theory was non-ideological, and made it clear that there
would be a major war between 2005 and 2025. But they gave that up
during the Bush administration, because it would support the NeoCons.
Then they decided that the Fourth Turning crisis would not be a war,
but would be the major social changes brought about by Barack Obama's
policies, turning America into a social Nirvana.
That they could even believe something so ridiculous as that shows
that neither of them have the vaguest clue how their own theory works.
It seems that the only one who understood the original theory was Bill
Strauss, but he's dead.
Now in the Trump administration, they're faced with the horrifying
reality that we're headed for war with China but, like most people on
the left, they'd rather think about impeachment or socialism. The
nightmare scenario for them, the worst nightmare in the world, is that
Trump would lead America through WW III, making Trump a historic hero,
one of the great presidents, like Washington, Lincoln, and Roosevelt.
That's too terrible for them even to think about it.
So that explains Howe's conflicted answer in the youtube video.
