Paul Krugman: A SOTU Like No Other (25 February 2026)
It’s true that in some ways the world fears us in a way it didn’t before — in the same way that one steps carefully around a belligerent drunk in a bar. But we haven’t been this weak on the world stage since before World War II. Anyway, that speech won’t pull Trump out of his downward spiral. Time to attack Iran?

Paul Krugman: Attack of the Zombie Tariffs (Substack 24 February 2026)
[…] Trump will have lost a lot of power even if he manages to avoid a big reduction in average tariff rates. So why persist? The obvious answer is that Trump can’t bring himself to acknowledge defeat. His tariff strategy is, by any reasonable standard, dead, and the tariffs should be dead too. But they won’t stay dead; they just keep shambling along.

Paul Krugman: Day 1461 of Putin’s Three-Day War (Substack 23 February 2026)
Some observers still don't understand how the reality of war has changed. Thus there have been breathless reports about the danger Ukraine would face after Russia seized the "strategic city" of Pokrovsk since July 2024. Russian forces finally entered Pokrovsk late last year and may now occupy most of the rubble. But it made no difference. This reality shows how idiotic it is for the U.S. Department of Defense — sorry, Department of War — to decide that its mission is to embrace a "warrior ethos." Bulging biceps and macho posturing won't help you prevail in modern war, while bombastic stupidity is a good way to get many soldiers killed.
