Donald Trump is becoming more and more dangerous as his physical and mental health unravels. This cognitive decline, however, has serious implications for American democracy, far beyond simply falling asleep during meetings. Mary Trump joins David Ro... more

Wake up listening to this episode. Made my head explode. If my partner had not been asleep I would have cheered. Great work.
Reminds me of listening to David Axelrod with a little Ezra Klein mixed in. No one is shouting but there’s thoughtful, believable banter. And it’s not so done and gloom. I just discovered this podcast and I’ll keep listening.
Yep, Rosa said it all for me.
If the Democrats don’t stuff up, there could be a stop to this slide into authoritarianism.
Finally hearing some truth, the far left is about equity, equality, accountability for those who profess to lead us. It’s not communism which is as much an aberration as fascism. Thank you, DSR team, from Australia.
I appreciate listening to a podcast that truly teaches me while I listen to. So informative and doesn’t rattle my nerves like the ones where someone is always yelling and talking over each other. That is so annoying!
Norm is the one expressing important reactions to issues and David Rothwhats his name interrupts, criticizes, calls him a downer. Also, I was going to subscribe because the adds are awful, but not so sure anymore.

A sharp, policy-focused discussion series that covers national security, foreign affairs, immigration, technology governance, and US political dynamics. Episodes frequently feature policy experts and academics who unpack complex issues—from Iran negotiations and JCPOA debates to AI ethics and governance, to the mechanics of elections and democratic institutions. The pace tends to be calm but pointed, prioritizing nuanced analysis over partisan shouting and often weaving in geopolitical context, media framing, and practical implications for readers and listeners evaluating policy outcomes.
