Race to the White House: foreign policy disputes, first presidential debate, and Trump Jnr's tweet
- Written by Tom Switzer, Research Associate, US Studies Centre, University of Sydney
This week on Race to the White House, Brendon O’Connor, Tom Switzer and Emma Lancaster are joined by Gorana Grgic to discuss the very real foreign policy disputes between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.
Is Trump a realist, conscious of the costs and limits of the use of force? Or is he more a hardline nationalist in foreign affairs? And is Clinton likely to distinguish her foreign policy from Barack Obama’s?
Also on the agenda: a preview of the first US presidential debate, Donald Trump Jr’s tweet that likened Syrian refugees to poisoned Skittles, and the debate over how to handle the recent terror incidents in the US.
The Race to the White House podcast is a collaboration between the United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney, 2ser 107.3 and The Conversation.
Emma Lancaster is a multi-platform journalist, and is the producer of The Wire on 2ser 107.3.
