Rubio to be pressed on Trump's foreign policy goals at confirmation hearing

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : On the Panama Canal, Trump has used overblown claims about China's involvement in its operations to justify his interest in overtaking it -- falsely claiming earlier this month that the waterway, which is operated by the Panamanian government, is actually run by Beijing.
44% : There are still many foreign policy topics where there's still plenty of distance between Rubio and Trump.
43% : In recent weeks, Trump has made international waves by refusing to rule out using the U.S. military to fulfill his goals of acquiring Greenland and the Panama Canal and saying he'll use economic force to make Canada the 51st state.
41% : But ultimately, Goldberg says, Rubio's role in the incoming administration will be advising the president on foreign policy matters and then carrying out what Trump decides.
20% : But over time, as Trump became a more outspoken critic of continuing American aid to Ukraine, Rubio appeared to change course -- eventually calling for a negotiated settlement to end the conflict.
5% : They hate Donald Trump and everything he stands for," Rubio wrote.
