“America First” in Action

Donald Trump’s shutdown of US foreign aid and withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement and the World Health Organization will damage, perhaps irreparably, US influence in global forums. Far from making America great again, Trump is giving a giant boost to China’s claims to world leadership.
