Stephen Wertheim on War and Peace in Europe and Asia
Stephen Wertheim (Carnegie Endowment for International Peace) joined me during today’s livestream on Twitch to talk about the future of Europe and Asia under Trump 2.0.
Does NATO have a place in Asia (no)?
What should Europe and Asia do about the inherent unreliability of US commitments, or about Trump’s transactionalism?
Why are Democrats to blame for Trump’s “dove clout,” and what should they do about it now?
And why didn’t European elites spend the last four years (or eight years) preparing for the inevitability of MAGA ascending to the presidency?
