Summary

Rotten Tomatoes gives "National Lampoon's European Vacation" a score of 39 percent. But if they had rated "Donald Trump's European Vacation" the score would have been a lot lower--especially if they were listening to our panel. Rosa Brooks of Georgetown, Kori Schake of Stanford, Susan Hennessey of Lawfare and David Rothkopf of somewhere in New Jersey, join for a play-by-play breakdown of the president's trip, gaffes, missteps, and outrages. Suffice it to say Chevy Chase would have done better...even the old, cranky, not-funny-anymore Chevy Chase of today. Also explored on this episode: the very big idea of a Kori Schake-Graham Allison cage match over the use of the term "Thucydides Trap." Deep State Radio Nerd heaven!
