More from Washington Week with The Atlantic

How would you characterize the Trump foreign policy doctrine this week? "Our assumption about the first term, that he was some sort of a neo-isolationist, is wrong. That’s not the way to put it. Now he’s looking more like a neo-imperialist," said @peterbakernyt.bsky.social.

"Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, has a pretty realistic view of [the Iran war]. He told them from the beginning it wouldn't be as easy as the president said it was," said @peterbakernyt.bsky.social.

"Gas prices are up 50%. Consumer confidence from the University of Michigan's survey is at its lowest point ever," said Idrees Kahloon. "This is really not the set of economic priorities that you want to be sending before you go to the midterms."

"Donald Trump has been very clear that he wants to keep the blockade. He thinks the blockade is working. I think there are reasons to surmise that the blockade is having some effect. It seems to be putting pressure on the Iranians in power right now," said Stephen Hayes.

What was the rationale behind Trump's Wednesday night speech? @jonathankarl.bsky.social: "He's taken a lot of heat for the state of the economy. He sees it. He reads the polls' numbers. He watches the news coverage. He's upset about it, so he thought he could go out there and kind of undo it."

"If you're in the hunt for coherence, you're covering the wrong administration," said @sangernyt.bsky.social. "[Trump] pulls back when it looks like he could be in a confrontation with a nuclear-armed country, ... or get involved in something on the ground that he can't control."

"Trump is really good about asserting his own reality ... but Americans aren't going to buy it if things don't change and change soon. And even if they do improve, the higher prices are going to remain for a while," said @jonlemire.bsky.social.

"To go outside of our planet and the immediate vicinity to go to another world is, and should be, an inspiring event. Unfortunately, it happens at a time when we're so divided at home," @peterbakernyt.bsky.social said about Artemis II. "It is this one thing, I think, that brings people together."

"On the question of immigration, I'm for a really high wall with a very big gate," said @thomaslfriedman.bsky.social. "I'm super pro-immigration, but it's got to be done in a way where the people can become Americans and be really anchored in our society and our values."

"No soldier, no Marine, no airman, no sailor wants to be seen as a political arm. They took their oath. They take their job seriously, and there is, at least among the people I talked to, a great fear and reluctance to take that step," said Nick Schifrin.

I call bullshit. Caleb says he's not against anyone and claims he's just there to "preach the gospel." He wants to make sure public school kids aren't exposed to people or beliefs that differ from that of his fundamentalist religious group that he pastors in Belfair, a 35 mile drive from Tacoma.
