Donald J. Trump Foreign Policy Speech
Thank you for the opportunity to speak to you, and thank you to the Center for the National Interest for honoring me with this invitation.
I would like to talk today about how to develop a new foreign policy direction for our country – one that replaces randomness with purpose, ideology with strategy, and chaos with peace.
It is time to shake the rust off of America’s foreign policy. It's time to invite new voices and new visions into the fold.
The direction I will outline today will also return us to a timeless principle. My foreign policy will always put the interests of the American people, and American security, above all else. That will be the foundation of every decision that I will make.
America First will be the major and overriding theme of my administration.
But to chart our path forward, we must first briefly look back.

I fear for Trump’s safety. He’s basically pissed off everybody within the “powers that be”. He’s totally exposed the Kabuki theater that is our political system for the last several decades, showing the elitists for who they really are & how they’ve oppressed the American voter.
I don’t doubt it. The speech matches what he’s said at rallys. I think he’s perfectly capable of writing his own speeches.
Thanks dynoman.
This is,in deed, a “NEW WORLD ORDER” now. The globalist are in catatonic stupor.
I think you're wrong there. But we'll see what happens at future rallies.
I am not a Trump hater, but I have my doubts as to his conservatism. With that said, his speech was brilliant. Well done, Mr. Trump, well done.
As Presidential as it gets.
Trump 2016 !
Pray for him and his family.
Trump has been consistent on the message of this speech since the get go.
This is a nice, well-formated, and formalized version of that message.
Guess Trump’s damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t with the haters. He’s either goofy and unpresidential, or someone wrote his speech for him.
Yawn.
I have to admit, I like this Trump. I have not being fully on board with Trump (but I did vote for him in my primary) this speech is what I have wanted to hear, SUBSTANCE. I have been truly turned off by his name calling, continual polling data, and lack of focus on issues. I have not been a Cruz supporter and certainly not Kasich, after hearing Trump today, I am relieved because I think he will make a great president. It is time for the others to suspend and I hope they do it soon.
Simply outstanding. Perfect.
I agree and wish I could have said that as eloquently as you. :)
I actually like the way he rambles, but if you pay attention there’s always a thread or post to it. Trump’s so interesting to study.
We will no longer surrender this country, or its people, to the false song of globalism.
The nation-state remains the true foundation for happiness and harmony. I am skeptical of international unions that tie us up and bring America down, and will never enter America into any agreement that reduces our ability to control our own affairs.
NAFTA, as an example, has been a total disaster for the U.S. and has emptied our states of our manufacturing and our jobs. Never again. Only the reverse will happen. We will keep our jobs and bring in new ones. Their will be consequences for companies that leave the U.S. only to exploit it later.
Under a Trump Administration, no American citizen will ever again feel that their needs come second to the citizens of foreign countries.
I will view the world through the clear lens of American interests.
I will be America’s greatest defender and most loyal champion. We will not apologize for becoming successful again, but will instead embrace the unique heritage that makes us who we are.
Simply stated...a GREAT speech. Hoorah!

Amazing to watch what’s happened since what? Your sign-up date from February?
For whatever its worth, MSNBC reported speechwriter wrote, then Trump rewrote it...true? I don’t know, but having been a speechwriter in my dim past...the finished product is “top-of-the-line!”
