epistemic game theory -> mean field games -> Tao's take on NSF funding cuts etc... In this case, the solution in the latter is to pander to the audience (aka Trump). There are multiple ways to do that. I would emphasize US loss of status, China etc... Anyway, it is interesting to see mathematicians think about this. I wonder if there will be formal ways to identify a lynch-pin or to otherwise influence the lynch-pin.
