At war with everyone – Who’s actually running US foreign policy?
Episode description
Trump has stripped US foreign policy down from a mix of carrot and stick into an ideological cudgel to beat friends and foes alike – and a lurid horrorshow for domestic consumption in Red America. But who’s actually running the show? Is America’s realignment with the world purely dependent on Trump’s whims or is there something coherent going on in there? Is it all just 1980s real estate thuggery writ large? And where is it all heading? The Economist’s Geopolitics Editor David Rennie explains the new American brutalism to Seth Thévoz.
