Daniel DePetris, a foreign affairs fellow at Defense Priorities, a Washington, D.C.-based think tank, said it’s “very hard to predict the policies of a man who values unpredictability.”
“The general assumption is Trump 2.0 will be far less restrained this time around,” said DePetris.
“Foreign governments, allies and adversaries alike, will certainly be planning for the worst. But the worst was anticipated when Trump first won in 2016 and his term, despite the rhetoric and sloppy policy process, was actually more rooted in the status-quo than one might expect,” he said.
