How the World Sees the Sad Spectacle of Trumpapalooza

About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of Trumpapalooza and its impact on the US's standing both domestically and internationally.

Trumpapalooza has come and gone, and the whole thing was about as insane as we’d expect. The glorified rally has only cemented the lunacy of this second term and shown the world that the US is a shadow of its former self. Ed Luce and Harvard professor Stephen Walt join David Rothkopf to examine the myriad ways that this administration is undermining the US both at home and abroad and why the midterms will be a flashpoint for our country’s future.  Learn more about your ad choices.
