As we look ahead to the new year, many of us hope to put the constant drama and sleaze and anxiety and pain of the Trump year's behind us. Many hoped that a steady establishment figure like Joe Biden would help to restore normalcy to American politics and to the world. Wouldn't it be nice to be bored with politics again? We asked our experts Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law, Kori Schake of the American Enterprise Institute, Ed Luce of the Financial Times and David Sanger of the New York Times whether they thought they was likely. Their responses and their wide-ranging predictions for the US and for the world in the year ahead are the subject of this special New Year's edition of Deep State Radio. Don't miss it.
