Next White House leader: Who's really the mystery pick for foreign policy?

Many think Kamala Harris would keep Bidenʼs foreign-policy path while Donald Trump would be hard-to-predict‚ but facts show a different story

Trumpʼs previous white-house run (about 4 years ago) gives us clear view of his approach; his team picks stayed constant over time. Key names for national-security roles include Mike WaltzRobert OʼBrienMike Pompeo and others - theyʼve been on the short-list since last summer

The picture isnt so clear with Harris: her work as vice-president (which started almost 4 years ago) doesnt give much insight into foreign-policy views. Before that she worked as state-level official and prosecutor - jobs that dont deal with international matters. Since becoming democratic front-runner this summer shes only shared basic views on world issues; we dont see detailed plans for Ukraine war or Iran situation

When it comes to team picks Harris keeps things close: except for Phil Gordon (her current security advisor) who might join white-house team theres no solid info about cabinet choices. Its possible she hasnt made these decisions yet - making her foreign-policy direction more uncertain than Trumps
