It was facinating to watch that speech and the reaction of the crowd from the bar in Star Wars.
There are some major policy shifts signal he made and then going from Riyahd, Jeruselum, then Rome. I quite liked this part. And thought it was a significant shift in the nations foreign policy
It is a choice between two futures -- and it is a choice America CANNOT make for you. A better future is only possible if your nations drive out the terrorists and extremists. Drive. Them. Out.
DRIVE THEM OUT of your places of worship.
DRIVE THEM OUT of your communities.
DRIVE THEM OUT of your holy land, and
DRIVE THEM OUT OF THIS EARTH.
For our part, America is committed to adjusting our strategies to meet evolving threats and new facts. We will discard those strategies that have not worked—and will apply new approaches informed by experience and judgment. We are adopting a Principled Realism, rooted in common values and shared interests.
Our friends will never question our support, and our enemies will never doubt our determination. Our partnerships will advance security through stability, not through radical disruption. We will make decisions based on real-world outcomes -- not inflexible ideology. We will be guided by the lessons of experience, not the confines of rigid thinking. And, wherever possible, we will seek gradual reforms -- not sudden intervention.
We must seek partners, not perfection—and to make allies of all who share our goals.
Above all, America seeks peace -- not war.
This is such an improvement from the Bush League GOP. This is what a leader looks like.
Good post. And regarding Obama, it’s easy to trash and apologize for a nation you detest and probably don’t even belong to. He may have been elected president on account of the fact America just had to have a black president at all costs to show we aren’t racist but I sure wish our first black president was a person who loved our country and was proud to represent it as president. Maybe we get that with our second black president. Ben Carson, I’m talking to you.
President Trump has had an outstanding first foreign trip as president. This couldn’t have gone better so far.
Thanks I appreciate the thumbs up on the post, and I like yours also.
One of my biggest peeves when it came to Obama, was that good solid Black citizens deserved better. It was a massive insult to vote in Obama ‘for them’.
It was the ultimate put-down. It said, “I know this isn’t the best candidate, but what the heck, we are talking about (the N word) ers... here.
The guy wasn’t a citizen. He wasn’t one of us mentally. He didn’t think of himself as a citizen. He hated the nation. He wanted to eliminate it’s influence on the world.
Perhaps the biggest favor he did us, was to provide the proven extent the Left in our nation would go to, in defense of someone who wanted to harm our nation and it’s most productive citizens.
Using his administration as a back-drop, we’re now headed in a new direction, one anyone can see is light years better.
Yes, this trip is going incredibly well. You know what, so did his first 120 days in office. We just wouldn’t focus on that, because the media wouldn’t let us. It had to take him down five notches with lies and innuendo, so it could look better.
Isn’t that always the case with losers.
We may have lost the elections in 2008 and 2012, but we were not the losers. We never acted like they are. The losers were entrenched in the DNC, the GOPe, the deep state, the White House, and the MSM.
Trump is taking a whiz on their parade. Gotta love it.
And I’m sure it’s 50 or over. The media has said that DJT approval has been in the 30s since he was a candidate along with their state and national polls showing Hillary was winning. This is why they cannot accept the results. They went deep in denial and haven’t left.
I do wish people would pull their heads out re: the polls and ratings.
Those ‘tools’ didn’t become widely used until CNN and other “news” outfits hired black hat psyops professionals to help them learn to better manipulate the masses with their broadcasts.
Anyone willing to dig around might even find the original “Pyscho-Social Manipulation Via Pseudo Demographics” study.
Yes, but same point. They’re not reliable. If the dems and the wussie GOP want to use polling for approval ratings then let that be at their own detriment. I mean, who cares anyway we’re less than five months into the man’s presidency. Approval ratings at this point are irrelevant even if they were accurate.

And he did it without one Styrofoam column.
yet, the headline on Fox News website has his approval number down...who to believe, who to believe...not liberal turning fox I would guess..
Yet today Fox says his approval rating is plummeting because of the firing of comey and the general public’s disapproval of that move.
Bizarro world!
Right.
But if Trump’s ‘approval’ numbers are as phony as his poll numbers before the election they don’t matter except to liberals in the MSM to tout how ‘unpopular’ he is... just like they quoted polls to show how ‘he can’t win’.
Depending on how questions are written - and in what order - and the tone of voice of the pollster - you can get vastly different results. Take them with a grain of salt - I would trust the biased hateful MSM more...
Pollsters make their bread and butter money from folks who run campaigns and political party hacks... Not exactly the ‘incentives’ that would make me comfortable trusting their product.
