Navigating U.S. National Security Under Trump
This chapter explores the transformation of the United States' national security strategy during the early Trump administration, focusing on the complexities of foreign policy, particularly in relation to China. It examines the internal dynamics of the National Security Council amidst Trump's non-traditional leadership style and the roles of key figures like Steve Bannon and Jared Kushner. The discussion highlights the importance of collaboration, the evolution of policymaking structures, and the challenges posed by a larger, more bureaucratic NSC in the face of modern security threats.
