The Bulwark Daily · Robert Kagan: We’re Transitioning to a Post-American World · 3 Apr 2026 podcast

You've talked a lot of people about the failure of our elites in this whole crisis of Donald Trump.

This is a perfect example of it.

And these are people, by the way, who favored every aspect of NATO enlargement.

And they were all for that.

And now they're ready to abandon it because because Trump made a mistake in Iran.
