Tom Nichols: Decadent America

  • Summary

  • Charlie Sykes and Tom Nichols discuss the chaotic first month of Trump’s second term, examining the administration’s internal distractions, its attacks on the rule of law, and the broader implications for democracy. They explore Trump’s erratic priorities—from tariffs and plastic straws to threats against NATO—while considering how authoritarian tendencies are being normalized. The conversation also touches on Elon Musk’s growing influence, the undermining of U.S. institutions, and the dangerous consequences of an increasingly unserious electorate.
