The preparations for a war against Russia and the 2020 elections.

War with Iran (and maybe Syria) I would say, rather than Russia, and yeah probably that and the 2020 elections like you said.

And maybe war with china. This trade war thing is kind of getting serious unfortunately... but hopefully it's mostly posturing and the ruffled feathers will be resolved soon. But with the way China is behaving toward HK... there are a lot of tense situations right now, but some of those may resolve without bigger problems, who knows.

I think the core of every these things is automation...Many people becoming jobless.

I think it's about half automation, and half labor oversupply. At least in the US

It's a different story in China, most of the jobs in China is replaceable by robots. Therefore, they scared as hell and keeping to bitching on other nations, including Taiwan.

Saying "robots grab your job" to them would trigger 95% Chinese people become crazy and rant to others, I tried many times. The leftover 5% don't know what is "robots". This nation has a very awful welfare system.

They way they rant to others sucks.

And US government also have to have fun with CCP since automation.
