Trump's Foreign Policy

[tx 3 putt 77928]

I'm not sure if I'm a sitting senator gives that up to go in a trump cabinet. You start off working from a hot seat. 

 

RICHARD GRENELL, potential secretary of state
Grenell is among Trump's closest foreign policy advisers. During the president-elect's first four-year term, he served as acting director of national intelligence and U.S. ambassador to Germany. When Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in September, Grenell sat in on the private meeting.
Grenell's private dealings with foreign leaders and often-caustic personality have made him the center of multiple controversies, though significant Republican gains in the Senate mean he could likely be confirmed. He is also considered a top contender for national security adviser, which does not require Senate confirmation.
Among the policies he has advocated for is setting up an autonomous zone in eastern Ukraine to end the war there, a position Kyiv considers unacceptable.

ROBERT O'BRIEN, potential secretary of state
O'Brien, Trump's fourth and final national security adviser during his first term, maintains a close relationship with Trump, and the two often speak on national security matters.
He is likely in the running for secretary of state or other top foreign policy and national security posts. He has maintained close contacts with foreign leaders since Trump left office, having met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel in May.
His views are somewhat more hawkish than some of Trump's advisers. He has, for instance, been more supportive of military aid for Ukraine than many of his Republican contemporaries, and he is a proponent of banning TikTok in the United States.

BILL HAGERTY, potential secretary of state
A U.S. senator from Tennessee who worked on Trump's 2016 transition effort, Hagerty is considered a top contender for secretary of state. He has maintained solid relations with essentially all factions of the Republican Party, and could likely be confirmed with ease in the Senate.
He served as U.S. ambassador to Japan in the first Trump administration at a time when the president touted his warm relationship with then-Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
Hagerty's policies are broadly in line with those of Trump. Earlier in the year, he voted against a major military aid package for Ukraine.

MARCO RUBIO, potential secretary of state
Rubio, a U.S. senator from Florida and 2016 Republican presidential candidate, is also a top secretary of state contender whose policies hew closely to those of Trump. Like Hagerty, he was a contender to be Trump's 2024 running mate.
Rubio has long been involved in foreign affairs in the Senate, particularly as it relates to Latin America, and he has solid relationships throughout the party.

What a week...
-Won a nation-wide mandate in Tuesday's election.
-Makes the DOJ banish Jack Smith to Siberia on Wednesday.
-Names first female Chief of Staff in our nation's history on Thursday.
-By Friday is already getting foreign wins that Biden couldn't even conceive of.
 

Trump did warn us we were gonna get tired of the winning. And this much winning is bad for the kids.

You know the Hamas leaders are huddled planning their future and the big topic is about how Kamala should have chosen Shapiro as her VP choice.

IN Arabic: The bitch should have went with the Jew over the weird and effeminate football coach.

Cool, but really don't mean shit. They are not the fighters. Their next stop will be Geneva with their millions and buying villas near Gstaad. Only real impact is makes it easier for Mossad to get them. Don't think anyone has an issue with that. But it does not stop a movement. That is why his international policies are kind of dumb.

So when is Russia going to turn around and vacate Ukraine?  Thats the foreign policy win that will get my attention. 
 

israeli ceasefire needs to happen but won’t impress me, unless and until I can be convinced that the only reason it hasn’t already happened was the US election.

Crossposting this from the main Ukraine thread over in DT.

@ztejas If the Ukrainians do indeed pursue getting "the bomb" again, it'll be the result of our isolationism and us abandoning our allies. This is the kind of dangerous shit that happens when the US turns its back on the world. When there is no backstop or the umbrella of American protection, it only destabilizes shit and invites more chaos because everyone has to go it alone.
