Trump’s Plan to Reorder the World

In this episode of The Daily, host Natalie Kitroeff and foreign policy expert David Sanger discuss the Trump administration's newly released national security strategy. The document reveals a shift away from the traditional U.S. role of defending liberty and supporting democracies worldwide, focusing instead on prioritizing American wealth and economic security. The strategy criticizes European allies, expresses concern over migration and "civilizational erasure" in Europe, and advocates for a return to the Monroe Doctrine, asserting U.S. dominance in the Western Hemisphere. This approach signals a potential retreat from global engagement and a move towards unilateralism, raising questions about the long-term impact on international relationships and the stability of traditional alliances.
