Would Donald Trump Be a Dangerous President?

Senior Republican national security officials in the US have signed a letter arguing that Donald Trump 鈥渨ould be a dangerous president鈥. Are they right?

Earlier this month 50 senior Republican national security officials signed a letter arguing that Donald Trump 鈥渓acks the character, values and experience鈥 to lead the United States. 鈥淲e are convinced鈥, they wrote, 鈥渉e would be a dangerous president鈥. We want to know if they are right.

Our expert witnesses are: Timothy O鈥橞rien, author of The Art of Being The Donald; Peter Feaman, Florida representative for the Republican National Committee; Daniel Drezner, professor of international politics at Tufts; and Elaine Kamarck from the Brookings Institution, an expert on presidential power and its limits.
