Is Germany the Sick Man of Europe?
In Part 2 of our conversation with Elizabeth Zerofsky, we debate Merkel's legacy. And it's a bit damning.
Published on: Apr 22, 2022  

In Part 2 of the discussion, the conversation shifts to Germany's growing sense of crisis. Is Germany the new "sick man of Europe"? During the Trump years, American liberals saw Angela Merkel as a sort of substitute leader of the free world. But Merkel legacy's may be in for a not-so-kind reckoning. Also: Damir wonders out loud whether Shadi is, deep down, a crypto-neoconservative.

In case you missed it, Part 1 of our conversation is available here.
