MUST READ: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/01/a-clarifying-moment-in-american-history/514868/ Thank's for posting this link R&R. Cohen nailed it.

His book does an excellent job of laying out the situation analysis for the US in current and emerging global politics. It provides for a sobering background to this piece.
