A Nation Divided and a Global Reset: The Political Landscape under Trump 2.0

Since President Trump’s return to office in January 2025, the United States has witnessed dramatic shifts in its political, economic, and global standing. Deepening domestic polarization has led to heightened partisan conflicts, legal battles over executive actions, and intensified debates on immigration, social policies, and election integrity. Meanwhile, a recalibrated foreign policy has seen a renewed focus on economic nationalism, shifting alliances, and a more confrontational stance toward China, NATO, and global trade agreements.

How has governance changed under Trump’s second term? What are the implications for democracy, the economy, and global stability? It is with great pleasure that we invite you to join us as we unpack the key developments, challenges, and opportunities shaping the United States and the world. Our Speaker: Ambassador Joseph W. Westphal, Senior Global Fellow at The Joseph H. Lauder Institute of Management and International Studies, The Leadership Center, Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Our Moderator: Ramon M. Esteve, Member of the Board of ECOM Agroindustrial Corp. Ltd. and Honorary Chairman of LATCAM.
