Since the end of World War II, the United States has been considered to be one of the major forces
in world politics. Any slight change in its foreign affairs affects international issues. Although the
country’s institutional structure is considered to be the main pillar of its foreign policy, presidents also
stand in the middle of this structure as important figures. Donald Trump is indeed an interesting and
unusual president in the history of United States. In April 2018, former FBI Director James Comey
declared that Trump was morally unfit to be President. This claim leads to some questions. What is
being morally accurate? What makes a president’s decisions moral or immoral? Is it possible to judge
or measure a president along with moral or ethical attitudes? These are the exact questions that Joseph
S. Nye, Jr. tries to find out an answer in his new book that was published in January 2020.
