Summary

Many in the political class are missing the point about NATO. The very countries that claim to value our support against enemies are working with those enemies to sabotage America and self-immolate while sticking us with the tab. Today, for foreign policy Friday, we are joined by CR’s national security correspondent, Jordan Schachtel, to discuss the latest on Trump’s visit to Europe. Jordan gives us the full perspective on Germany’s perfidy with Russia and the problems with Turkey in NATO. We also discuss the opportunities to use a carrot-and-stick approach with the new Mexican president and the need to reorient our priorities, alliances, and focus on national security.
