SUMMARY:"Trump's Wars" with Seth Singleton
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the lecture "Trump's Wars" with Seth Singleton. The 
 program is in-person with online\; registration encouraged.\nRegister to 
 attend in-person and online.\n\nDonald Trump promised to end American wars 
 and entanglements. Deals and tariffs would spur an American industrial 
 renaissance. Trump claimed he ended eight wars and deserved the Nobel Peace 
 Prize. His Board of Peace would rescue Gaza. Now he wages war. He blockaded 
 and raided Venezuela then launched a massive air war against Iran with 
 little foresight and no endgame. Cuba is under an energy blockade. Trump 
 threatens Greenland and Canada and the European Union\, but favors Russia 
 and China. What is Trump’s worldview and his goal? Will the wars end or 
 multiply? Will Trump’s policies ruin or strengthen the United States in 
 world affairs?\n\nSeth Singleton has taught foreign policy in the United 
 States\, most recently at the University of Maine\, and in Russia\, 
 Tanzania\, and Ecuador. He has been a speaker for the State Department in 
 China and Vietnam and in African countries including Somalia\, Sudan\, 
 Ethiopia\, and South Africa. He studied Russian history at Harvard and 
 international relations at Yale. He spent the Cold War trying to figure out 
 what the Soviet Union was up to and now asks similar questions about the 
 United States.\n- - -\nTo ensure that your CONFIRMATION EMAIL reaches you\,
