Leftists think it mostly started with Trump, but Congress punting its powers to the executive branch is a longstanding problem. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://patreon.com/thebrionmcclanahanshow https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

A recent social media dust up encouraged Paul Gottfried to write about paleoconservative foreign policy. Is it isolationist? https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://patreon.com/thebrionmcclanahanshow https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com
