He can be withering about America’s closest allies.</span></p><p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px"><span>But Trump is not an across-the-board isolationist. When he was president, he engaged with the world in ways that still shape U.S. policy. Rather than ignoring China, he adopted a more confrontational approach than any president in 50 years. In the Middle East, he imposed “maximum pressure” sanctions on Iran and ordered the assassination of a top general. He also fired missiles at Syria after it used chemical weapons against its own people. A pure isolationist wouldn’t have taken those steps.</span></p><p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px"><span>The Morning has been publishing a series called The Stakes, focused on the policy positions of the presidential candidates.

Trump has called for cutting U.S. military aid, which could force Ukraine into an unfavorable peace deal. To many other politicians from both parties, this possibility is deeply alarming: It could reward Vladimir Putin’s invasion, by enabling Russia to annex Ukrainian territory, and encourage future wars. Trump, however, believes that Americans shouldn’t care much about what happens in many faraway places.</span></li><li style="margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:27.5px"><span style="font-size:17px;line-height:25px;vertical-align:middle">His approach to </span><span style="font-size:17px;line-height:25px;vertical-align:middle;font-weight:700">U.S. allies like Japan</span><span style="font-size:17px;line-height:25px;vertical-align:middle"> </span><span style="font-size:17px;line-height:25px;vertical-align:middle;font-weight:700">and Western European countries</span><span style="font-size:17px;line-height:25px;vertical-align:middle"> also leans isolationist — but with nuance.
