The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: Trump is Doing What Neocons Wouldn’t in the Middle East

On today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson,” Hanson says that Trump is promoting security through economic cooperation and criticized the neoconservative legacy of endless wars.


“ What Donald Trump is trying to say is: Let's just not get into politics. Let's not get into offending foreign leaders. … Not to lecture them, but to create economic matrices, nexuses, in which people find that it's in their vested interest to profit rather than to kill people.


“ What he's emphasizing is that there is a common bond in the world. And that common bond is in the heart of everybody. They want peace and they want prosperity and they want security. That's not necessarily antithetical or exclusionary of freedom because, obviously, economic ability—the ability to make money and the ability to be secure—often has an element of what? Freedom.”

The Bulwark Podcast - S2 Ep1047: Susan Glasser: American in Name Only

On deportations and on foreign policy, the Trump administration is swapping out American values and violating everything the U.S. has stood for in exchange for kleptocracy and transactionalism with the world's worst tyrants. But at the same time, Trump can't even seem to grasp that Putin has been waging war for decades to accomplish his goals and is not interested in cutting a deal to end the bloodshed in Ukraine. Plus, the very dim appointees running our federal agencies, Elon and Marco are now trying to deny they cut food aid, and the unwelcome honorific of being a Trump historian.
