I suspect Phillips would be surprised to find a lot would come to the conclusion that Western civilization isn't worth defending: their response to her claim that we are in an existential war would be something like "better dhimmi than génocidaire".

Except that it's not 2010 any more: the goal is not to "create jobs" but to fix our dilapidated public services, re-arm to face the Russian threat, and invest in green energy.
