Dan Crenshaw Instagram – Is Germany on the road to collapse? Geopolitical strategist Peter Zeihan argues on my latest Hold These Truths podcast that the most powerful country in Europe is facing an economic catastrophe in the next few years. Three major challenges creating this perfect storm: 1. The highly skilled workforce Germany developed in the post-World War 2 era is retiring, and there aren’t nearly enough young people to take their place. 2. Skyrocketing energy costs thanks in part to the Ukraine-Russia War and Germany’s own terrible decision to transition to unreliable green energy. 3. An overreliance on trade relations with China, which are falling apart under diplomatic tensions and China’s own collapsing system. Watch the full episode to hear Zeihan explain what Germany can do to save itself from ruin. Zeihan also gives us a fascinating around the world tour predicting what the 21st century has in store for Europe, the Middle East, China, and the Americas. #germany
