Summary

Earlier this month, Kaiser recorded a discussion in front of a live audience at the 1990 Institute in San Francisco with three luminaries of the China-watching scene: Yasheng Huang, MIT Sloan Professor of Chinese Economy and Business, John Pomfret, author of The Beautiful Country and the Middle Kingdom, and Andy Rothman, investment strategist at Matthews Asia. They got together to talk about how the presidency of Donald Trump will affect trade, politics, the international order, currency policies, and several other sides of the American relationship with China.

0:00.0	Welcome to this special live edition of the Cynical podcast coming to you this week from the inaugural symposium of the 1990 Institute here in San Francisco, California.
0:18.0	The 1990 Institute is dedicated to broadening understanding and building
0:22.1	trust between the people of the United States and China through education, philanthropy, and
0:27.6	collaboration, just like the Seneca podcast is except for the philanthropy part. Anyway, I am Kaiser
0:33.3	Guo, and I am delighted to bring you this weekly discussion of current affairs in China, which is produced in partnership with SubChina.
0:39.3	SubChina is the best way to stay on top of the most important news from China in just a few minutes a day with a free email newsletter, a handy smartphone app, and at the website SubChina.com.
0:49.3	It's a feast of business, political, and cultural news about a nation that is reshaping the world.
0:56.0	Today we are going to be talking about an individual who has also been reshaping the world.
1:02.0	That person is, of course, Donald Trump.
1:05.0	And given that we're in San Francisco and that this audience isn't all white and male,
1:09.0	I dare say most of us here today would say he's reshaping things in a manner we don't particularly like.
1:14.0	So how will the Trump presidency shape this vitally important bilateral relationship between, of course, China and the U.S.?

1:28.9	themselves, on the global trading system more broadly, on matters of security, of course,
1:33.2	on popular attitudes of both Chinese and their attitudes toward Americans and Americans
1:38.8	toward Chinese, but also of it'll impact attitudes of what people in other countries and
1:43.7	other parts of the world
1:44.9	feel toward China and toward the United States respectively. So today to help us understand
1:50.2	the challenges that the U.S. and China face under the fine-tuned machine that our president
1:54.8	believes is an administration to be, we have invited some of the very smartest people I know
1:59.5	to share their insights. Unlike this audience, however, this panel is unfortunately all male, as you will notice,
