“NEXT UP”
On yesterday’s new episode of “Next Up,” I open the program with a reported monologue on Donald Trump’s escalating pressure campaign over Greenland—and what it reveals about his foreign policy worldview and decision-making style.
I break down five core fundamentals shaping Trump’s approach, from Europe’s dependence on U.S. power to his belief that markets, not Congress or allies, may be the only real constraint on him.
Then I turn to Iran, explaining why Trump’s decision not to strike after mass protests wasn’t weakness but a calculated bet—and why the uprising there may be closer to the beginning than the end.
Finally, Democratic strategist Doug Sosnik joins me to explain what will actually matter in the 2026 midterms and what the 2028 electorate may be looking for next.
