Show Notes
In this week’s PN Pod, co-host Paul Waldman and I discussed the outlines of the emerging Iran deal, which looks like something close to a complete Trump cave, and unpacked whether the president can sell his humiliating loss as a win to the American people. But before that, we got into this weekend’s UFC fight at the White House, how the whole thing seems like a deleted scene from Idiocracy, and why Trump prefers bloodsport to sleeping through NBA games. We also talked about war crimes becoming official US policy and what it says about the direction of the military (spoiler alert: nothing good).
