A Flying Bribe

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down Trump’s global tour as America’s reputation hits a historic low, and discuss the fallout from a new international survey showing China overtaking the U.S. in global favorability. They unpack Trump’s cozy ties with Qatar and the bizarre controversy over a $400 million jet, including GOP pushback and security concerns. Kander and Gupta also examine Trump’s trade war blunder with China, where bluster gave way to retreat—and what it signals for his economic strategy. Plus, they highlight Trump’s decision to drop protections for Afghan refugees while signaling openness to white South African immigrants, and dive into the latest GOP budget fight over Medicaid and Trump’s tax cuts.
