The Foreign Policy of Donald Trump

Donald Trump will become president and commander-in-chief in January. This is obviously a surprising outcome and likely upsetting to many listeners of this podcast. But I promise to you that I will dedicate myself and dedicate this podcast to helping you make sense of foreign policy and world affairs in the age of Trump.

To that end, I caught up with Heather Hurlburt of the New America Foundation. Heather and I have a pretty wide ranging discussion about the implications of a Trump presidency for American alliances, for Syria, for the Iran nuclear deal and for the lives of some of the most vulnerable people on the planet. We kick off discussing the kinds of personnel choices that President-Elect Trump must take in the coming weeks which will be a very early sign of what kind of foreign policy president he will be.

This is going to be an intense ride over the next several months and years. I'll be there with you every step of the way.
