    I'm a huge fan, appreciate all of your insights, love the anti globalist tilt. Just one thing with Trump: focus on results and not process. He's not a diplomat. He's a NY real estate negotiator. He cares about results not anyone's feelings or political protocol. They're all corrupt globalists who cares. Importing refugees to create instability. Ignore them

    Thanks both of you for a very good and informative podcast. I’m a regular listener. Just a reference to the recent talk with Jeffrey Sachs and you mentioned two articles related to Joan Robinson and Jeffrey Robbins. I’ll be very grateful if you can provide me with the links to those articles, thank you.!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Q & A: Foreign policy HUBRIS and MAGA division
Q: How does Trump manage his credibility and political capital given the current events?
Trump seems unaware of how mortally wounded his credibility is now and believes he can rectify this without fully grasping the support of his base is at risk.
Q & A: Foreign policy HUBRIS and MAGA division
Q: Will European countries deploy troops to Ukraine?
It's unlikely that European countries will deploy troops despite calls for it; public opinion will strongly oppose such actions.
Q & A: Foreign policy HUBRIS and MAGA division
Q: What do you think about conscription in Europe?
It's likely to face enormous resistance in Germany, as young people there are opposed to it. If introduced, it could weaken militaries rather than strengthen them.
