Daniel Hannan, the British writer and politician, was honored at the recent “ideas summit” of the National Review Institute. Jay sat down with him there, to talk about Britain, Europe, nationalism, patriotism, Marine Le Pen, Viktor Orbán, Vladimir Putin, and more. Burning issues addressed by a learned, experienced, and thoughtful man.

First, thanks for the excellent interview, with a great man.
Second, I noticed Mr. Hannan called Mr. Nordlinger out on his inapt use of the term “right wing” to refer to socialist nationalists (like Marie LePen). Thanks, Dan. You are right; as Jay immediately acknowledged. But Jay is incorrigible on this point. He made the same mistake again on today’s “Need to Know” podcast, as he has repeatedly in the last year.
Trump is not “right wing.” He’s an old fashioned Democrat populist and patriot. Some of Trump’s reluctant voters are right wing –as is Jay Nordlinger.
