#Trump Expands His Foreign #PolicyFootprint as #Shutdown Rages OnThe #US government has been shut down for 23 days with no sign of resolution, & Trump is going to #Asia.Trump’s trip is focused on #trade & peace *deals*, the White House *says*. It comes during a foreign-policy-heavy swing for the president — one that some in his political movement are calling out as a departure from MAGA’s “America First” mantra [that’s because he is & always has been “Trump First”].https://www.notus.org/foreign-policy/trump-foreign-policy-shutdown

In recent days, the #US has #bombed more of what the #Trump admin alleges are drug boats in international waters, & Trump has threatened direct action against #Venezuela. He also announced that his admin would bail out #Argentina with a cash swap of up to $20 billion & quadruple imports of low-tariff Argentinian beef to drive down prices in the US.#ForeignPolicy #USpol

@Nonilex I was reading about the bodies from the boats washing ashore in Trinidad. Thts just awful. No drugs so far, just bodies.

The admin has moved #troops to #Israel to help enforce the #Gaza peace plan, &…in a move to pressure #Putin to end the war in #Ukraine, #Trump approved #sanctions on 2 of #Russia’s largest #oil giants.…“It’s America first,” a WH ofcl told NOTUS. “People falsely & very stupidly think that’s isolationism; it’s not. It’s more nuanced … People think about ‘America First,’ & they’re not looking at the layers beneath it. They’re not looking at the whole Trump doctrine.”#ForeignPolicy #USpol

What exactly the #Trump doctrine is appears to be more elusive. NOTUS asked more than a dozen Republican lawmakers, current & former admin officials & experts how they would characterize Trump’s #ForeignPolicy program. Few were able to pin it down, though some expressed skepticism about its direction.[again, I say, it is “Trump First” that’s all]#USpol

@Nonilex How soon, I wonder, before the Israeli forces kill a U.S. soldier?

@Nonilex "I’m sure he wakes up every day thinking about factory workers in Ohio, but he’s also thinking about soldiers in Ukraine.” (Alex Conant, a Republican strategist)Boy does that fail the giggle test
