United states. We are here today to discuss matters of vital importance to us all. Americas security, prosperity, and standing in the world. I want to talk about where weve been, where we are now, and finally, our strategy for where we are going in the years ahead. Over the past 11 months, i have traveled Tens Of Thousands of miles to visit 13 countries. I have met with more than 100 world leaders. I have carried americas message to a grand hall and saudi arabi saudi arabia, a great square in wausau, assembly of the united nations, into the seat of democracy on the korean peninsula. Everywhere i travel, it was my highest privilege to represent the American People. Throughout our history, the American People have always been
the true source of american greatness. Our people have promoted culture and promoted our values. Americans have fought and sacrificed on the battlefields All Over The World. We have liberated captive nations, transformed former enemies into the best of friends, and
marjorie taylor greene. are advocating for an america first strategy. of isolationism. and they have vocal supporters in far right media. we have heard many times the republican party might be ready to break with the trump wing. but is something different this time around? the difference is that donald trump isn t necessarily at the forefront of it. you have the chief imitation and they don t carry the force. or have the popularity that donald trump had. the national platform and name recognition that donald trump had. so the america first foreign policy with donald trump what was that really about? the cult of donald trump. now you see the republican party more serious members of the republican party this is actually a moment where they have to respond to a major crisis in the world. that can quickly cascade and turn into nuclear war.
partner. explain the stakes and just how does he plan to do that. reporter: the administration is very aware of the concern among america s allies about whether or not the u.s. can be a trusted negotiating partner, whether the u.s. is going to be there to take a leadership hole on these big issues like climate change. that, of course, comes after four years of former president donald trump really battering a lot of these alliances with his america first strategy and this nationalist approach to diplomacy. the administration says that part of this trip is about repairing those alliances because in order to tackle these big issues, they say, like climate change, like the growing economic and military threat many countries see from china, like russia as they have this, in order to tackle those, they need a united front of the democracies in the west. they say it is no accident that
know. and so again, his america first strategy is becoming america alone. there s speculation here on wall street that no calls took place with china last night. nobody can verify that. the chinese government is not verifying it. let me take this into parts. let s take this into parts, if we can and we ll come back to doral at the end. first of all, how do you assess i m asking you as an investor who is in zurich. how do you assess what has been going on the last three days? the president went to the g7 talking about accelerating the trade war. then he stepped back and said he was having second thoughts. then the white house said he s not having second thoughts. and today he backs off once again. what s your assessment of that? well, i mean, just the lack of predictability is due to the president s irrational emotional state right now. i ve been saying for the last two weeks he s melting down at the core. a couple more weeks like this, i
and the benevolence of our society. now we have this human wrecking ball out there. the third thing, which is most important thing, each of us as americans we re sitting around saying okay, we like this, we like that but, man, something really does not feel right and it s him and he s got to go. i want to talk about that because you have an op-ed in the washington post which i thought was fascinating. i m going to get to that in a minute. it s also how you use that power and whether you have credibility with that power. his declining is every single day. he has a rate limiting slope of power decline every single day because every time he opens his mouth, every time he sends out a tweet what s happening is the rest of the world is reassembling itself around him. so his america first strategy is going to leave america alone. he doesn t use his power wisely? no. it s to his detriment. to the detriment of american society, to the american citizen, to the global citizen. every time
