The sky isn’t falling: Trump’s foreign policy won’t be a catastrophe

Many observers are ringing the alarm bells about Donald Trump’s reelection, fearing a retreat from America’s role in the world. Critics insist that his approach to foreign policy will dismantle the rules-based international order that the U.S. has long championed.

But although Trump’s approach is far from traditional, it is neither reckless nor isolationist. Instead, it represents a strategy of restraint aimed at addressing core threats without entangling America in endless global commitments.
