The Bulwark: Trump's NATO Tantrum Exposed the Whole Problem (w/ Alex Wagner)

Jul 8, 2026 The Bulwark Podcast with Tim Miller

Too many party people in Graham Platner's camp cut him too much slack when it came to the allegations that have continued to dog him. It's probably because Democrats so desperately want politicians who will fight that they'll tolerate a certain amount of bad male behavior. At the same time, plenty of women sniffed Platner out from the jump, including here at The Bulwark. Meanwhile, the Republicans' McConnell story is not convincing, man baby POTUS had some ridiculous demands at NATO, ICE is still on a murderous rampage to fulfill Stephen Miller's quotas, and Susan Collins helped fund the gulags. And on a more silly note: Was Taylor's wedding tacky? And should Tim and Alex do a sex podcast?
