Seven months after his National Security Strategy laid out the plan to back "patriotic European parties" across the continent, I go through exactly how it's collapsed: Orbán's landslide defeat in Hungary, Romania rejecting a Trump-aligned candidate, Giorgia Meloni's public feud with Trump over a G7 photo, Jordan Bardella refusing to share a CPAC stage with Steve Bannon, and Germany's AfD quietly edging away too.
Excellent, hard hitting, and so very true. — © Mark Alexander
