In this episode of Lockdown Diaries John O’Sullivan, the president of the Danube Institute in Budapest interviews Richard Lowry, editor-in-chief of the US-based National Review, who explains his understanding of the not-so-easily defined concepts of American exceptionalism and nationalism in general.
Lowry moves on to the talking about the Covid-19 epidemic in the US, how it was handled and what could have been done better, then tries to predict the outcome of the presidential election in November 2020, the campaign to which may still hold many surprises along the road.
