Trump's first term illustrated the discrepancy between his anti-war rhetoric and his actual actions, which largely supported the existing establishment's approach to foreign policy.
Much of Trump's foreign policy aimed at maintaining the status quo of perpetual conflict, as he opted to continue long-distance bombing without initiating new wars.
Despite portraying himself as a peace candidate in 2024, Trump's record showed a preference for violent solutions abroad while avoiding ground troop deployments.
Biden's foreign policy, which prioritizes maintaining U.S. power globally, created an opening for Trump to position himself as an alternative to the establishment's approach.
