Dispatch Live: National Security Experts Say Harris and Trump Both Fail to Inspire Confidence

Join us tonight for a special livestreamed conversation.

Mary Trimble will host tonight’s Dispatch Live featuring our national security symposium experts. As global instability rises with conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, adversaries like Russia, Iran, China, and North Korea are drawing closer. This turbulent landscape will pose immense challenges for whoever wins November’s election. But is either candidate—Kamala Harris or Donald Trump—equipped to handle the task? Join our panel experts on foreign policy and national security as they discuss why neither candidate currently inspires much confidence in navigating these critical issues.
