James Pogue: What Ukraine Reveals About MAGA
What does the dramatic collapse of talks between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Donald Trump and J.D. Vance reveal about Trump’s foreign policy, Vance’s ideology, and the future trajectory of MAGA? Just asking questions.
James Pogue, who has written extensively about the American New Right and who predicted in 2022 that Vance would be “hugely influential in our politics in the coming years,” joined the show to dissect the doomed televised negotiations between Zelenskyy and Trump, offer his insight about the vice president’s aggressive interjection, and discuss why he thinks the rise of the online “dissident right” is poised to either fall apart or lead America into a “dark night of totalitarianism.”
