Are the U.S. Elections at Risk of Subversion?

In this episode of Ripple Effect, Michael and Steve are joined by Rick Hasen, professor at the University of California, Los Angeles School of Law and director of its Safeguarding Democracy Project, to talk about the risks of subversion and violence surrounding the U.S. elections. They discuss former President Donald Trump’s refusal to accept the election results in 2020, and his multi-pronged effort to overturn the result, which culminated in his supporters attacking the U.S. Capitol on 6 January 2021. They unpack the complex voting system in the U.S. and whether legal reforms in the aftermath of the 2020 elections are enough to safeguard against potential subversion in this cycle. They also discuss whether the tense political climate around the polls and efforts by Donald Trump and his supporters to sow distrust about the validity of the vote could lead to new violence.  For more, check out Rick Hasen’s <a href="https://electionlawblog.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Election Law Blog</a>, our latest Q&A <a href="https://www.crisisgroup.org/united-states/united-states/risks-violence-around-2024-us-presidential-election-primer" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Risks of Violence around the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election: A Primer</a> and our <a href="https://www.crisisgroup.org/united-states" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">United States</a> program page. <hr> Hosted on Acast.

Elections and their Consequences: What to Expect from a Harris or Trump Foreign Policy

In this episode of Ripple Effect, Michael and Steve are joined by Daniel Kurtz-Phelan, Editor of Foreign Affairs, to talk about where U.S. foreign policy might be headed after the November elections as conflicts and crises swirl around the world. They take a look at Donald Trump and Kamala Harris’ competing views about Washington’s role in global affairs and who either presidential candidate might choose to fill their national security cabinet.
