KENNY CODY: The US needs Trump's approach to foreign policy

If the last week has proven anything, it is that the current status quo of weakness, negligence, and ignorance that is President Joe Biden's foreign policy reflects how much former President Donald Trump's approach is missed. Over this past weekend, the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas surprise attacked Israel in one of the deadliest attacks on the country and people of the Jewish faith the world has ever witnessed. Scenes from the conflict have circled social and mainstream media, as Israeli women, children, and innocent bystanders have been obliterated in the onslaught from Hamas.

While it is well known that Israel will respond in kind to the attacks that will likely wipe Hamas from the face of the earth, it is still relevant that two of the world's most intensified militaristic conflicts have happened under the watch of the most incompetent leader of the free world the United States has ever had in office. In all his wisdom, Joe Biden has decided to host barbeques, call lids, and cower in the face of adversity while the world runs wildly due to his weakness as President of the United States.

The sort of shills who operate in traditional or establishment politics thought that the nice older man from Delaware would be the ultimate judge of peace, tranquility, and diplomacy when he entered office in the early days of 2021. Yet, he has proven to be a complete failure in foreign and domestic relations.

Biden's inefficient handling of foreign relations differs from Donald Trump, who singlehandedly prevented the United States from getting into a foreign conflict -- overseas or otherwise -- during his entire tenure in office, a feat that no one thought was possible before he was sworn in. Citizens may wonder why Trump, viewed as an aggressive madman by many on both sides of the political spectrum, handled foreign policy like he did.

On the surface, Trump was unpredictable. No one knew if a decision would be made to launch World War III or if he would take a calculated approach to diplomacy. Ironically enough, the threat of retaliation, intimidation, and aggressive nature made Donald Trump the most successful President in his approach to foreign policy than nearly any President in United States history when it came to anti-interventionist strategies.

When Iran attacked and killed several U.S. military personnel, Trump responded by going after and ordering an assassination of their giant dog and militaristic mastermind, Qasem Solemani. When Russia had talked about threats to invade Ukraine, Trump discussed bombing Russia's capital, Moscow, in danger directly toward Russian President and oligarch Vladimir Putin. Trump has stated that he does not know if he would have gone through with this threat or his threats towards Iranian President Hassan Rouhani through intimidating tweets.

The media, establishment, and the left all responded to these actions by reactionary dramatics that claimed he would get the United States attacked to get us involved in a foreign matter we had no place in. Yet, nothing ever happened. Trump kept the United States, and frankly the rest of the world, safe because he intimidated the same leaders that the rest of the earth's leaders fear the most because of the aggressive attitude of America's first foreign policy. He had no allegiances nor ties to the neoconservatives who had led the country through foreign affairs so many times before, nor the neoliberals that the military-industrial complex had worked years on to buy off. Trump kept our country safe because he prioritized it before all else.

Peace by intimidation is what we need in our country right now and from now on. Donald Trump's leadership was embodied by not being run over by the rest of the world's approach to foreign affairs and putting the United States' needs before anywhere else's when making policy decisions. We need Trump back as soon as possible to restore order, faith, and protection to our country.

I agree. That is one of the reasons the elite do not want him. They profit off of these “wars”.

[georgia peach]

Amen.

The US needs Trump's approach to foreign policy

The military industrial complex was a warning issued by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in his final address to the nation. I like Ike!

The headline made me think of this recently posted meme that is more of what Trump is about:

I’m pretty sure they stole the election from Trump just to get Biden in so we could have more wars.

[Moorings]

They claimed that Trump was going to start WW3 back in 2016. All the liberal democrats and RINOs were smearing Trump.

Well, under the democrat geniuses and RINOs with that "deft" touch in foreign policy, very nuanced and suave, the world is falling apart. All the bad guys are having a field day. Started with the Talibanana, Russia, China, now Hamas and Iran. The world is inching towards a major war.

If the RNC was a credible party, these facts would be in ads everywhere. Instead they are probably planning their next lavish retreat.

The U.S. needs Trump's approach to foreign policy

Yes, it does. But we are never, EVER going to have it again.

That “sort of shills” includes the entire mainstream media, most of the GOP leadership, nearly all corporate leadership, all of academia, and more. Basically, the entire Managerial Class.

With Trump, I felt SAFE something I dont feel now. I NEVER thought that in the United States of America, there was so many who despise Jews..and they ALL vote Democrat which is why biden wont say a peep about them because they are on his voter block. NOTHING that is happening right now, Israel being attacked, Ukraine at war, etc etc would be happening if Donald Trump were President..stolen elections have massive consequences

[TornadoAlley3]

Biden goes after Putin. “Oh God Man why is he still alive”

Iran. Crickets.

If Biden and Trump make it to GE, and I don’t think they will be allowed to run, the debates will be all Trump saying see, I was right, on every debate topic. That’s why either one or both of them will not be the nominee.

[CodeToad]

“there was so many who despise Jews..and they ALL vote Democrat”

Ironic that Pew Research shows 71% of Jews still vote democrat.

[Theodore R.]

I think that is because most Jews are “secular” Jews and not that attached to Israel. Is that right? Liberalism means so much to so many.

[CodeToad]

“most Jews are “secular” Jews and not that attached to Israel.”

My experience is that jews see themselves are jews first, foremost, and always, and in relation to Israel. America is just paycheck.

Excellent!
