Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump
warned against the false song of globalism in a major foreign policy address on Wednesday in an escalation of his rhetoric rejecting the current framework of international coalitions.
We will no longer surrender this country or its people to the false song of globalism, Trump promised during a speech in Washington.
I am skeptical of international unions that tie us up and bring America down, he claimed. And under my administration, we will never enter America into any agreement that reduces our ability to control our own affairs. The nation-state remains the true foundation of happiness and harmony.
Trumps comments are among the most vivid depiction yet of his profound doubt in the framework of global institutions that have dominated the globe since the end of World War II.
Critics deride his rejection of that system as isolationist and warn that it would undermine the U.S.s ability to shape events around the world.
But Trump has maintained that the current framework has left the U.S. lagging and has forced America to rush to other countries' aid.
In his Wednesday address, which was widely interpreted as a moment for Trump to pivot from the primary campaign and attract support around the Republican Party, the GOP front-runner specifically mentioned NATO, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the U.S.s alliances in the Asia-Pacific as worthy of reevaluation.

Trump gave a speech which was based on common sense. Yeah.
It is also 20 years overdue.
Agree. But I’d put it at 27-plus years.
Globalist Bush Sr took office Jan 1989.
George HW Bush also was the first American President to bring up the New World Order in a speech. He brought it up in a nationally televised speech to Congress on September 11, 1991.
Pray for Trump’s safety. If he’s elected President a lot of very bad people will be going to prison, and they know it.
Two days ago I met Senator Ted Cruz’s wife Heidi here in Omaha, NE.
I have a dynamite photo of her and me and I’m fooling people thinking she’s my new girlfriend before I spring the joke on them.
She seems like a sweety but I’ll admit that if she were mine we’d have.....TWELVE kids! LOL!
However, this foreign policy speech of Trump’s is really showing that he is grounded in American Sovereignty and that he recognizes that World Government is so against the interests for the country and American citizens, and is completely against ...The Founding Fathers and our Constitution.
A lot of people say Senator Cruz is a Constitutionalist and on many issues he seems to be.
But....if your first instincts are not 100% for the United States of America and its Citizens, your foundation is too weak to protect the Constitution right out of the gate.
I will probably vote for Trump due to this issue and the need to end the H1-B Visa progam.
When the Turks are cracking the front gate at Vienna, you must throw your reserve in and seal the breach before thinking of long term reforms.
So, as much as I was smitten by the beauty and warmth of Heidi Cruz, I must gather up all my focus and strength and vote for Trump on May 10th.
Tough decision, but I believe the right one.
All the citizens of the world who live in America will have to go home to the world.

Bingo
Eisenhower warned America of the Military Industrial Complex and the neocons in the Republican Party and the “Hawks” in the Democrat party are the main culprits.
“The nation-state remains the true foundation of happiness and harmony.”
Wow... he will have some very bitter enemies.
Calling Dr. Kevorkian.
Ray-ciss!
To the Ted Cruz supporters who just don’t get why so many conservatives support Trump over the supposedly more conservative Cruz, THIS SPEECH is why! Trump gets the BIG picture. Cruz doesn’t have the vision or guts to make a speech like this. I AM supporting the MOST conservative candidate in the race and that is Donald Trump. Do you get it now?
If he means what he says it works for me!
“We will no longer surrender this country or it’s people to the false song of globalism. The nation state remains the true foundation for happiness and harmony.”
BRAVO! (see my tagline)
