First with Murtaza Hussain )@MazMHussain).Trump as the final nail in the post-WWII / Cold War worldview. Critiquing Russia’s and America’s imperial power from the left, and how to regard institutions like NATO and the EU that are problematic but also under existential threat. Leftist internationalism in an age of anti-intervention.
