100% Cotton: The Senator from Arkansas on Issues Domestic and Foreign
Tom Cotton has been a US Senator since 2015. Before that he served for two years in the US House of Representatives from the Arkansas Fourth District, after defeating a two-term Democratic incumbent. Cotton served in the US Army, where he was stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan. He’s a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School. In this wide-ranging interview, conducted in the Hugh Scott Room in the US Capitol, Senator Cotton opines on a variety of issues, including the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine and the looming conflict with China over Taiwan; his “war” with the New York Times; what can be done about the lack of trust in US institutions; and why he’s not running for president in 2024.

Cotton for president – 2024! (Even though he has definitely ruled that out because of his two sons, 5 and 7. He sounds like a man with a lot to offer his country.
What a great man! I’ve always liked and admired him, and I learned a lot, too, through this interview. Thanks, Peter!
