When Donald Trump returns to the helm of American power on January 20, 2025, there could be a dispute about American foreign policy. This is owing to his reputation in disrupting the status quo. 

During his first presidential term, Trump's foreign policy approach was uneven. This might be linked to the chaotic environment of the Trump White House, where he appeared at odds with his administration, resulting in a lot of personnel changes and inconsistency in foreign policy posture, ultimately undermining his ability to execute some of his foreign policy ambitions.
