For the seventh episode of ECFR’s Swamp Chronicles, Aslı Aydıntaşbaş and Jeremy Shapiro talk to Ed Luce, US national editor and columnist at the Financial Times and author of The Retreat of Western Liberalism about what either a Kamala Harris or Donald Trump victory would mean for America, US foreign policy, and Europe.

Luce discusses his belief that a Trump win would put US constitutional order at stake and details the crisis that would arise, should his mass deportation plan be put into action. He describes how billionaires such as Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are influencing the race and how JD Vance fits into the future of the Republican party in its current guise. Luce also shares his thoughts on how the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East could develop in the scenario of either a Harris or a Trump administration.
