Are the Republicans aware and can post Trump America be fixed S5E9 01.23.2026
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today we have a question from Ronald from Topeka, Kansas: "I am a retired Army officer who served 20 years in military intelligence." I therefore fully understand the importance of our NATO alliance. I will also disclose that I did vote for Trump in 2024, and I deeply regret that vote.
Trump seems to be against Europe as a whole, and that means NATO by extension. Although Trump is clueless, what about all the hawks in the Republican Party? They must see that his moves are contrary to national security. They must also see that other NATO countries are beginning to move toward a post-American-centric alliance. Or do they? Republicans are reluctant to stand up to Trump, but they must understand that he’s out in 3 years and the post-Trump era, without NATO, not to mention the disastrous trade and tariff policies that are moving the rest of the world to make moves that isolate us, could be disastrous. Or do they? I know you don’t like to make predictions, but… If not stopped, what does the panel think the post-Trump-era world will look like for the United States in 2029? If Republicans allow him to continue down this road, even with a change in leadership, will this be fixable?
