The New Yorker’s Brutal Take on Trump’s Foreign Policy — The Political Vigilante | Graham Elwood

In this video, Graham Elwood examines a New Yorker report by Robin Wright detailing how former military officials, Republican advisors, and national security experts view Donald Trump's deep lack of foreign policy knowledge. Following a viewer submission from Patreon supporter Tim Stack, Graham discusses Trump's foreign affairs blunders, the criticisms from figures like Max Boot and retired generals, the failures of the mainstream political establishment, and the urgent need for true progressive leadership.
