Trump’s worldview has been boiled down to a mantra lacking labels and ideology: It is what Trump says it is.
By Anne Gearan and Anne Gearan White House reporter Email Bio Follow Robert Costa Robert Costa National political reporter covering the White House, Congress and campaigns Email Bio Follow March 6 at 9:02 AM Secretary of State Mike Pompeo grew testy in a recent newspaper interview when asked to explain why President Trump would take North Korean leader Kim Jong Un “at his word” about the death of a U.S. college student taken prisoner in North Korea.
“The party is silent on foreign policy for the same reason it’s silent on other issues: fear and trying to keep open lines of influence,” said former senator Jeff Flake , a Trump critic. “Trump stands as a direct challenge to the postwar, international rules-based order where America gave an open-ended security guarantee,” former White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon said, adding: “This is not America alone, or America withdrawn or America indifferent. It’s America with allies, not protectorates.”
“The president’s view is he gave nothing away,” Bolton repeated carefully. “That’s what matters, not my view.” In a weekend interview with USA Today following the meetings in Hanoi, Pompeo reportedly “reacted angrily” when asked about a North Korean official’s statement following the Hanoi meetings that the country will not change its offer to the United States — a statement that contradicted Trump’s rosier view of the summit.
“To me, the final contract is really the thing, Bob, and I think you mean that, too,” Trump said as Lighthizer nodded after a brief public disagreement between the pair. Lighthizer had described an aspect of trade talks as a “memorandum of understanding,” a phrase that Trump said he disliked but that is a common practice in trade deals.
High-profile Republican voices in Congress, such as the late senator John McCain of Arizona, have usually been hawkish defenders of alliances such as NATO. Less than two months after joining the administration, Haley said she did not “trust Russia” despite Trump’s outreach to President Vladimir Putin. “We should never trust Russia,” she said.
