No matter who wins this historic election, the new administration will face huge challenges. Can the country be unified or does more division or even chaos lie ahead? What do the election results portend for U.S. Middle East policy, the U.S.-Israel-Palestine relationship and the Israel-Diaspora relationship?
Featuring Jodi Rudoren, Editor-in-chief of the Forward with guest host Rabbi Steven Garten, Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Israel Ottawa, where he served for 19 years as Senior Rabbi.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
