Summary

Watch Politics War Room & James Carville Explains on YouTube

James and Al do a deep dive into Trump’s cabinet picks and whether they will be confirmed before welcoming Ambassador Frank Wisner. They discuss the challenges Trump will face accommodating European security needs when negotiating an end to the Ukraine-Russia war and the growing threat posed by Iran as it manages the replacement of Ayatollah Khamenei. Then, they look at the role our Asian alliances will play in containing China, how Vietnam affected our foreign policy pursuits, and the potential India has as a global power and diplomatic partner.
