Jacob Heilbrunn, Editor of The National Interest and author of America Last: The Right's Century-Long Romance with Foreign Dictators, returns to The Realignment. Jacob and Marshall discuss how the American right and left cozied up to foreign autocrats during the 20th century, why he believes the far-right's sympathies with autocrats are more relevant to today's policy debates than the left's sympathy with communist regimes, the differences between good faith skepticism of the U.S. foreign policy establishment and bad faith sympathy towards autocrats, and the parallels between modern day isolationists and the Bush-era Neoconservative movement.
