Tom Friedman quotes from a recent Tony Blair speech, attacking Brexit and Trumpism. Sad to think we are down to the unpopular Blair, eloquent still, in making the case for the largely successful international order of the past 50 years. Democrats, being pushed to the Left by the Trump Revolt, will have to decide if they are Bernie-bound in the direction of overthrowing the post-cold-war international order, or hanging in there against Trump’s nationalism. It’s likely the Democrats will try to straddle this issue, which may fatally blur their message.
