ABOUT THE TOPIC
Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump have presented sharply different views on US national security. Whoever wins in November will face enormous challenges keeping this country safe and prosperous. They will have to grapple with old and new adversaries– Iran and North Korea arming Russia is a historical contradiction and a chilling warning–rising populism in Europe, mistrust of the post-WWII rules-based order, and an American Congress and public that is deeply divided and ambivalent about the value of American global leadership.
