The Phone Call That Never Was

November 12, 2024

Like Dorothy of Oz, WashPost’s Max Boot closes his eyes, taps his heels 3 times and wishes Trump to “escalate to de-escalate” and to be “tougher than Biden on Ukraine”. Boot sees hope in Trump’s toughness with Putin in the Thurs. phone call that never was!
