The debate didn’t cover foreign policy. So we did.

Category: News & Politics
Duration: 00:46:07

Description:

Zack, Jenn, and Alex break down the 2020 Democratic field’s positions on foreign policy — which were weirdly under-discussed in the most recent debate. They set up a spectrum, with Bloomberg on the (far) right flank and Bernie on the left, situate the other candidates along this line, and discuss the things that distinguish each candidate on the issues. Zack comes out as a free trader, Jenn heaps love on Biden’s detailed foreign policy answers, and Alex gets feisty.


References:

Alex wrote about the foreign policy splits among the frontrunners, as well as Buttigieg dodging questions.

Here are the Council on Foreign Relations and New York Times foreign policy surveys.

Alex conducted foreign policy interviews with Tom Steyer and Julián Castro.

Biden has some explaining to do on his Iraq War stance, as does Bloomberg.
