On Today's Show

On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN:

First, Fareed gives his Take on American foreign policy under President Trump, and how his rhetoric can undermine US diplomacy.

"America remains a superpower. Its allies search for ways to accommodate it. The Trump administration can keep making outlandish demands, and it will obtain some concessions because no one wants an open breach with the United States. If Trump says the Europeans have to come up with some changes to the Iran deal, they will try to find a way to do so because they don't want to see the deal collapse and the West fall into disarray. This is not a sign of power but rather the abuse of it."

Next, Fareed hosts a panel to discuss the meeting this week between Kim Jong Un and Chinese President Xi Jinping, US policy on North Korea, developments this week over Russia, and more. Joining Fareed are Anne-Marie Slaughter, president and CEO of New America and the author of "The Chessboard and The Web," Richard Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations and author of "A World in Disarray," and Walter Russell Mead, a professor of foreign affairs and humanities at Bard College and a columnist for The Wall Street Journal.

Also on the show: What is the likelihood that the US will end up in a trade war with China? Does China's economic model offer lessons for the West? Is America underinvesting in its future? Joining Fareed to discuss this and more are Rana Foroohar, global business columnist and associate editor at the Financial Times, and Steve Rattner, formerly President Obama's "car czar" and now Chairman and CEO of Willett Advisors.
 
Plus: What does it mean to be American? And can anything be done to heal the current divisions? Joining Fareed to discuss what she describes "zero-sum political tribalism" is Amy Chua, a Yale Law School professor and author of "Political Tribes: Group Instinct and the Fate of Nations."
