Trump Must Put Americans Before Foreign 'Partners'

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

61% : When foreign officials speak, Trump should remember the "Joe Isuzu" auto ads almost 40 years ago.
48% : After arming the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in its genocidal campaign against Yemen, the Trump administration urged Riyadh's recognition of Israel, for which America would have to pay: MbS is demanding a defense guarantee and regulation-free nuclear energy.
46% : When Zelensky and Netanyahu, Macron and Lai, and the rest genuflect before Trump, begging for favors, he should hear the same.
37% : Trump has already put Seoul on notice that he wants it to pay far more for Washington's defense.
34% : Although during his first term Trump exhibited a welcome willingness to occasionally challenge the decrepit and antiquated status quo, he also proved vulnerable to fawning blandishments from those skilled in milking the U.S. government.
33% : As for Pyongyang's nuclear threat, there is substantial South Korean support for its own nuclear deterrent, something Trump has also suggested.
29% : Although favoring disengagement from Afghanistan and Syria, Trump allowed a dishonest and belligerent bureaucracy, headlined by officials like Jim Jeffrey, to block his plans.
28% : In a post-election phone call Trump apparently urged Russian President Vladimir Putin not to escalate the war, but offered no convincing reason for Moscow to stop when it has been gaining territory.
27% : Trump also targeted Iran although it posed no threat to America and could be contained by Israel and the Gulf states.
27% : There is no better place than the Koreas to let Trump be Trump, negotiating with the North and transforming America's relationship with the South.
24% : Trump has expressed skepticism about Taipei's policies, especially its lackadaisical attitude toward its own defense, and should push back against those prepared to risk nuclear war over the island.
22% : He sees Trump as just another U.S. politician to be manipulated and then cast aside when no longer useful.
22% : The Korean peninsula looks even more dangerous than when Trump left office.
21% : Although Trump sharply criticized the allies during his first term, his administration actually increased the number of troops in and money spent on Europe.
