Trump, Russia, and How to Pronounce "Magnitsky"

from Dinner Table Politics

Abby and Jim discuss President Trump's disastrous summit in Helsinki and why George Will called the Commander-in-Chief a "sad, embarrassing wreck of a man." That leads to the incredible story of Bill Browder and the 2012 Magnitsky Act, which leads Abby to predict that Melania will likely soon be jumping out of airplanes a la Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible. Also, is the EU really a foe? Why does the difference between integrative and distributive trade matter? And how is Putin's attempt to get vengeance on Bill Browder like the Battle of Hogwarts? See our website for privacy information.
