Concerns about World War III starting under a Trump presidency stem from his unconventional foreign policy, which some leftists fear could escalate global tensions.
His administration’s potential to prioritize “America First” policies might strain alliances like NATO, weakening collective defense against adversaries. Critics also worry that Trump’s communication with authoritarian leaders, such as Putin, could embolden aggressive actions from Russia, particularly in Ukraine or Eastern Europe. His withdrawal from international agreements, like the Iran nuclear deal, could reignite conflicts in the Middle East, drawing in global powers. There’s also apprehension about his approach to China, where trade wars or military posturing in the South China Sea could spiral into broader confrontation.
Conversely, supporters argue that his deal-making style and deterrence through strength could prevent large-scale conflicts. Some analysts point to his first term, noting no new wars began.
