The U.S. midterm elections in November 2018 produced divided control of government and seemingly greater polarization amongst the American electorate. But how will this outcome impact policymaking on key issues within the United States, and the conduct of foreign policy toward Asia? In particular, will U.S. strategic and economic relations with China become more fraught as President Trump looks toward a likely re-election campaign in 2020? Hoover Institution fellow and Stanford University public policy faculty member Lanhee Chen — a frequent commentator on geopolitical and policy issues — provides his unique perspective on these questions.

Domestic Policy Studies and Lecturer in the Public Policy Program, and an Affiliate of the Freeman-Spogli Institute for International Studies at Stanford University.
