The "America First" idea that governs most of Trump's foreign policy prescriptions:
Given he flip flopped on this topic already and he consults his own brain it’s safe to say he probably still doesn’t have a foreign policy plan.
That and he loses to any Democrat including a bag of crap with a D painted on it come general.
Given T. Towers was built with Polish labor, his clothing line is made in China and Mexico, where is his America FIRST?
Noticed not a word was said when Nabisco moved Oreo’s to Mexico.
Or his wanting to import over a K in foreign workers when we have Out of Work Americans and VETERANS who are skilled laborers.
HIRE A VETERAN FIRST! Make sure they are AMERICANS.
C’mon. Trump’s “Make America Great Again” and not being ripped off by other countries have been totally consistent.
Who doesn’t believe in “America First”?
"I think it's fine. I think it's fine, but we should have made a better deal," Trump added. " The concept of opening with Cuba is fine."

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil -- Russia's push into Ukraine has put many on edge. But less known is that Russia is also strengthening its military links south of the Rio Grande and re-establishing itself as a power in the region.
Vladimir Putin has been strengthening military links here, and Russia is now the largest arms dealer to governments in Latin America, surpassing the United States.
Russia has even floated the possibility of building new military bases in Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua, and putting its warships permanently in the Caribbean.
In the midst of the Ukraine crisis, Russia's top diplomat Sergei Lavrov recently visited Cuba, Peru, Chile, and Nicaragua, where he announced that Russia would also pour money into the new Central American canal project. ..."

Russia agreed to provide military training for three leftist regimes in Latin America and increase military visits and exercises following a visit last week to the region by Moscow's Defense Minister Sergei Shoygu, Pentagon officials said.
Shoygu met with defense and military leaders in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua and signed several agreements on warship visits and military training during the visit, which ran from Feb. 11 to 14. It is not clear whether any new arms deals were completed during the visit.
Defense officials said the Russian leader is seeking bases in the region for strategic bomber flights that Shoygu recently promised would include flights over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.

Russia has stepped up its military maneuvers to a level unseen since the height of the Cold War, according to a new report released by NATO Thursday.
Jens Stoltenberg, the alliance's secretary general and author of the report, noted that Moscow has conducted at least 18 large-scale exercises over the past three years, "some of which have involved more than 100,000 troops."
Those exercises included several simulated nuclear attacks against NATO allies and partner nations ..."
Wow. His plan is deep, thoughtful, and chock full of results.
We’re doomed.
Donald Trump once again is being accused of giving Vladimir Putin a helping hand, on the heels of the Republican presidential front-runner’s tough NATO criticism.
After the billionaire businessman criticized the alliance earlier this week as expensive and “obsolete,” his political foes noted that any pull-back from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which was created in 1949, would be greeted as welcome news in Moscow.
“That would be a massive victory for Putin and a massive victory for ISIS,” his opponent, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, told Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor.” ...”

It’s a slogan, not a policy.
Free traitors...just for openers
A simple and effective statement. I’m an America firster myself. Go Trump Go let them attack this so we can laugh at them.
lolol yeah slogans have been consistent ..
Trump has great words!
Trump says he wants to beat the other side and Cruz says he wants to beat the guy who wants to beat the other side - who has the clearest path to the WH game plan?
Meddlesome foreign policy is just as bad as no foreign policy.
