American Foreign Policy Debate: Leo Strauss Letter Previewed Today’s Divide on the Right

Donald Trump, who promised to “not seek to impose our way of life on anyone” in an inward-looking first inaugural address, has bombed seven countries in the year since his second inaugural.

This Shyamalanian plot twist, of the type that infuses political theater with more shock value than the movie theater, unleashes drama among the president’s more melodramatic well-wishers. When Tucker Carlson, who opposes intervention in Iran, visited the White House earlier this month, Laura Loomer referred to him as “Tucker Qatarlson,” the “virulent Jew hater,” and “mouthpiece for Islamic jihadists.” Days earlier, Carlson had suggested that she rename her Loomer Unleashed podcast Loomer Unhinged.
