Unpopular War, now what? #10 Brandon Weichert

About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of engaging in foreign wars on domestic politics and the economy.

Project Out Loud – When you promise no foreign wars and then engage in one, the coalition that rallied behind an America First message weakens. And when the war drags on, every day the headlines carry images of higher gas prices and empty store shelves. Politics responds to pocketbooks. The midterm map can flip on an economic whisper. So what must happen now?
