Not to mention that at that time he was closely boxed in by the GOP Uke loving republicans. He was being investigated as a Russian agent, impeached and investigated for even delaying aid to Ukraine.
That was not his policy per se. It was the policy of the GOPe neocons including Pence, and he had to throw them a bone here and there to keep the entire sicko structure from simply removing him and ending his reelection.
Well, his new guy Kellogg Rice Krispies seems to make Joe Biden look brilliant with his stupid comments. Trump’s success rate on appointments is about 30%.
You think that made him reactivate V Corps, made him move its previous headquarters from Germany forward to Poland, start a new nuclear weapons increase and new nuclear subs, and pull us out of the INF treaty, insist on a NATO buildup and ending their dependency on Russia energy?
Trump’s foreign policy was not based on his being weak and afraid of “Pence”.
