Summary

Donald Trump has unleashed resources of his government to support his campaign against Joe Biden in a way that America would condemn were it the behavior of any foreign government. In fact, as David Sanger pointed out in a recent NY Times article, he has crossed lines that may damage America's standing for years to come. We discuss that article and a host of recent foreign policy developments with David as well as Rosa Brooks of Georgetown University Law Center and Kori Schake of the American Enterprise Institute. Then, we get an exclusive preview with David of the upcoming HBO documentary based on his best-selling book "The Perfect Weapon." It's deeply relevant to politics today as well as to critical strategic choices any new president will have to make. Don't miss this wide-ranging and fascinating discussion.
