Donald Trump stood on the red carpet waiting eagerly — applauding, even — for a man who has brought untold misery into the world. Vladimir Putin is a war criminal, but that’s putting too light a touch on the damage and destruction he has brought to humanity.
Meanwhile, where are the Republicans who have called Putin a war criminal? Who have said he should spend the rest of his life in prison — or be executed? If you’re the kind of person who subscribes to Lincoln Square, probably none of this is surprising. But it’s still a gut punch to watch our President warmly welcome a butcher who would be arrested had his plane landed in just about any other country on Earth (not all, of course).
Stuart Stevens has been a witness to the destruction of the Republican Party, from both the inside and now from the outside. He’s written about it at length and regularly offers his own mea culpa. In fact, it’s why he works so hard with both the Lincoln Project and Lincoln Square — he feels some responsibility for the distance we’ve fallen.
Of course, without fighters like Stuart, where would we be? In this video, he talks about the journey from the 1980s to this moment. He names names, and he brings receipts.
Watch and let us know your thoughts. We love to hear from you. And if you missed journalist Tim Mak updating us live from Ukraine earlier on Saturday, you can catch the interview below.
