Germany holds parliamentary elections this weekend, and political watchers there are expecting its nativist Alternative for Deutschland party to make gains, despite long being a political pariah.

We look at Germany’s far right resurgence and what it means for the U.S. and Europe.
Guests:
Jen Kirby, Foreign and National Security Reporter
