The Holy Post
French Friday: A Unified Theory of Trump
Feb 28, 2025
In this engaging discussion, David French, a conservative commentator, and Skye Jethani tackle the perplexing nature of Donald Trump's governance. They explore Trump's controversial foreign policy shifts and examine the concept of 'patrimonialism' as it relates to his view of leadership. The duo contrasts modern political dynamics with the Founders' vision of virtue. They also profile the decline of moral integrity in American politics and its intertwining with evangelicalism, raising questions about discipleship and the true essence of leadership.
