Is the United States retreating from the world?

Is the United States retreating from the world? Anyone watching the presidential campaign can be forgiven for thinking that Americans want little to do with what occurs beyond their borders.

Republican nominee Donald Trump is touting an America First approach, proposing to build walls to stem immigration and raise tariffs to bar the import of foreign goods. Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton has turned against the very trade agreements she once championed as the nation’s diplomat-in-chief. And both are vying to replace President Obama, who came to office on the promise of ending U.S. foreign wars but who has often been reluctant to lead in addressing some of the world’s most pressing problems.
