America Doesn't Know What It Is Anymore | Tom Nichols

America Doesn't Know What It Is Anymore | Tom Nichols

America is in a moment of self-inflicted crisis — and the man responsible may not be able to find a way out. Trump has started a war he promised he wouldn't, fractured his own base, and tied his political fate to every price rise and policy failure.


In this episode, I speak with Tom Nichols about why Trump's domestic troubles are uniquely of his own making, what the Iran war reveals about the collapse of MAGA's anti-interventionist promise, and whether the Republican Party can survive the contradictions Trump has created. We also explore what all of this means for Ukraine, Russia's future, and American power on the world stage.


Tom Nichols is a staff writer at The Atlantic and Professor Emeritus at the U.S. Naval War College.
