Last week, I joined Joanne Carducci on Substack Live for an in-depth discussion about my new book The Folly of Realism (get your copy here), and the pressing foreign policy challenges facing the United States. We examined the long history of U.S. missteps regarding Russia, the significance of Trump’s disastrous meeting with President Zelensky, and the steps Americans can take to ensure that our democracy survives.

I am including three short clips from our discussion in this post, but the full recording of our conversation is available exclusively for paid subscribers. Paid subscribers get access to exclusive content, deep-dive policy analysis, and behind-the-scenes insights you won’t find anywhere else.
