DSR Weekly Wrap-up: Trump’s NATO Tantrum Reaches New Lows

The series of follies in Iran continue. The usual suspects are gearing up for another round of peace talks in Pakistan, yet a true long term solution for the conflict still seems far out of reach. Is a real long term solution even possible, or is this a quagmire that America can’t escape from? Daniel Benaim, Kenneth Pollack, and Dan Shapiro join David Rothkopf to assess the intractable problems at the center of this conflict and why this administration is out of its depth.

NTK: The New Princess Bride Rule: Never Fight a War in Southwest Asia

A new Fox News poll contains crushing findings for Donald Trump. His approval on the economy is at 34 percent with 66 percent disapproving. On inflation, those numbers are even worse, at 28-72. Importantly, the poll also finds Democrats with the advantage on the economy for the first time in years—a milestone. Meanwhile, Trump advisers are feverishly trying to hatch a new midterm strategy. And top GOP senators tell Politico that Trumpworld is bracing for more purges of senior officials, with one senator confiding about Trump: “He’s in a bad mood, so he’s letting a lot of them go.” We talked to G. Elliott Morris, author of the great Strength in Numbers Substack, who just released his own poll. He explains what all the numbers are really telling us, why Trump has long been weaker than the punditry allows, and what must happen now for Democrats to win the House and Senate.

What is the most effective strategy here to save our democracy? Tune in as David Rothkopf and Norm Ornstein discuss why we need scorched earth Democrats and where we go from here.

DSR Daily April 23: US and Iran Capture Tankers as Ceasefire Turmoil Continues

After Democrats narrowly passed a mid-decade redistricting in Virginia, Donald Trump erupted in fury on Truth Social. He slammed the result as rigged (of course), lied about the voting in it, and most important, openly called on the courts to step nullify it. But some Republicans are admitting the truth: This debacle is Trump’s fault. He initiated a redistricting arms race that now backfired spectacularly. Yet there’s a lesson in this madness: Trump-GOP cheating becomes a lot harder when Democrats fight it with scorched earth politics. We talked to Brian Beutler, who has argued well on his Off Message Substack that Democrats must get better at hard-edged politics in coming years. We discuss the deeper reasons that Democrats made a stand this time, how Trump revealed vulnerability to counter-hardball politics, and how this should shape future Democratic efforts at post-Trump accountability and fascism-proofing the system.

DSR Daily April 22: Trump Extends Ceasefire (Some Restrictions May Apply)

Donald Trump is having a hard time in the Middle East. The US administration might think that they have control over the war in Iran, but it is clear that our president cannot find an off-ramp. And the longer this conflict continues, the more the rest of the world grows sympathetic towards Iran and disdainful of the US. What comes next? Steven A. Cook and Elisa Ewers of the Council on Foreign Relations join David Rothkopf and Ed Luce to discuss the situation in the Middle East and Donald Trump’s failures in Iran.

More Trump “Magic”: How He Made Many in the World Have Sympathy for Iran

President Trump keeps boasting that a deal with Iran is at hand. But now officials leaked word to CNN that Trump’s public posturing has hurt the negotiations. One noted that by “negotiating through social media,” Trump implied Iran had agreed to things “they hadn’t yet agreed to,” complicating the talks. That’s humiliating, given Trump’s bragging of success. Meanwhile, in two cult-like tirades, Karoline Leavitt attacked the media for being insufficiently worshipful of Trump, and gushed over his greatness with extraordinary sycophancy. Can any good outcome be envisioned here? We talked to former National Security Council veteran Emily Horne. She explains why Leavitt's spin is so absurd, why this fiasco is so hard for Trump to extricate himself from, why there may be no good options ahead, and what it means that Trump has indefinitely extended the ceasefire, which he announced while we were recording.

DSR Daily April 21: The Incredible Revolving Trump Cabinet Loses One More

While Donald Trump and Elon Musk are currently feuding in a King Kong vs. Godzilla battle on social media, the devastating impact of their short-lived union continues to unfold.
