Contributing sentiments towards policy:
56% : Since leaving active duty he's worked extensively in the non-profit sector and media; his nomination to head the Pentagon shocked insiders, who hadn't considered him a contender.54% : They defend the legal gray area of U.S. foreign policy -- "I'd ask you, what is a war in today's world?" -- and claim, without foundation, that the Department of Defense would rather defund the National Guard and seize its bases and equipment than cede authority to Congress.
48% : Although their positions are not overtly related to foreign policy, designated Co-Commissioner of Government Efficiency Vivek Ramaswamy and Health and Human Services nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have also endorsed the bill, rounding out a cabinet that disproportionately agrees that the National Guard should not be fighting undeclared wars.
47% : But with his selection of Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense and Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence -- among a group whom The Wall Street Journal labeled "angry Iraq vets who want to upend U.S. foreign policy" -- Donald Trump has put together a national security tag-team who are enthusiastic supporters of Defend the Guard legislation.
46% : With each new cabinet nomination, Donald Trump signaled that his second term will be a constant struggle between maximalist hawks in the mode of his Republican predecessor and restrainers seeking to hoist the new (and old) banner of America First.
44% : The fact that Congress has abdicated its responsibility in being held to account, on the record, for actually having to cast a vote to declare war, to authorize the use of military force," she explained, before going into detail about her own service and why Congress isn't currently incentivized to take political accountability for U.S. foreign policy.
