Donald Trump, who we keep hearing is a peacemaker, said his speech for the 250th anniversary of the founding of Navy that the U.S. only lost the wars in Vietnam and Afghanistan because we got too "woke" about war tactics.

Season 7 Episode 23: Norm Finkelstein & Matt McManus on John Stuart Mill
The crossover event the world has eagerly awaited is here (OK, well, some of us are excited)--Matt McManus and Stormin' Norman Finkelstein on the same podcast episode. As it turns out, they share an interest in John Stuart Mill, so we thought it might be interesting to explore that. Before that, Ben does an Opening Argument on Bret Stephens's absurd genocide denialism. Watch Norm deliver a lecture on Mill to the Communist Party of Great Britain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gt3WmzLM5G0 ...
