Has Trump squandered American military deterrence?

Season 2026 Episode 32 | 12m 28s

President Trump’s war against Iran has significantly depleted U.S. munitions and his threats to hunt down the "leakers" of this bad news don’t do anything to help the war’s cause. The panel discusses the shortfall and the overall unpopularity of the war.

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, Otsuka, Kaiser Permanente, the Yuen Foundation, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
