H.R. McMaster in Conversation with Margaret Hoover: At War with Ourselves

H.R. McMaster and Margaret Hoover
At War with Ourselves book cover

Join former National Security Adviser, Ret. Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster, for a conversation on importance of competence in foreign policy and his turbulent and consequential 13 months in the Trump White House — and his new book, At War with Ourselves.

Entering the Trump administration at a critical moment in US history and foreign policy, H.R. McMaster was determined to transcend petty political feuds and focus on national security priorities — forging coalitions in Washington and internationally to advance American interests. It wasn’t easy. At War with Ourselves highlights the crucial importance of competence in foreign policy and makes plain the need for leaders who possess the character and intellect to guide the US in a tumultuous world. With the 2024 election on the horizon, McMaster offers a crucial outlook on what another Trump term might look like. Hear his candid, insider perspective on Trump’s worldview, the challenges facing the US interests abroad, and how the partisanship that grips our politics in Washington affects US foreign policy — and world order as we know it.
