Decoding Trump’s National Security Strategy w/ American Prestige Pod | Ep. 277
Free crossover episode with the American Prestige Podcast! Julia Gledhill and Van Jackson joined Daniel Bessemer and Derek Davison to breakdown the Trump administration’s newly released National Security Strategy. They discuss how the document leans on civilizational framing, portrays competition as existential conflict, omits diplomacy and institutions in favor of coercion and deal-making, and deemphasizes democracy promotion. They also touch on the strategy’s treatment of Europe and Latin America, its assumptions about American power, and what the new NSS suggests about the direction of U.S. foreign policy.
