In this episode of Ripple Effect, Michael and Steve are joined by Daniel Kurtz-Phelan, Editor of Foreign Affairs, to talk about where U.S. foreign policy might be headed after the November elections as conflicts and crises swirl around the world. They take a look at Donald Trump and Kamala Harris’ competing views about Washington’s role in global affairs and who either presidential candidate might choose to fill their national security cabinet. They assess how a Democratic and Republican administration would differ in tackling the deepening conflicts in Ukraine, the Middle East and elsewhere. They also discuss how U.S.-China policy and Washington’s relations with Tehran might evolve after the elections.
