Opinion: Let’s hope Trump’s foreign policy isn’t America’s
National security adviser John Bolton speaks in the Brady Briefing Room of the White House. By Jennifer Rubin Jennifer Rubin Opinion writer covering politics and policy, foreign and domestic Email Bio Follow Opinion writer March 11 at 11:15 AM If you are concerned that President Trump thinks the Islamic State is inactive, Kim Jong Un is going to denuclearize and we can make money by extorting our allies, you are in good company. His top advisers and prominent congressional Republicans do, too.
REP. LIZ CHENEY: I think it would be absolutely devastating. We benefit tremendously. If you look at the last 70 years, we have been able to benefit both from the perspective of freedom, prosperity, security, safety because of our bases and our cooperation with our allies. The notion that we are somehow now going to charge them cost plus fifty, is really — it’s wrongheaded and it would be devastating to the security of the nation.
CHUCK TODD: [Hasn’t Kim] already gotten more … out of this president by simply getting respect on the world stage? Hmm. Well, Cheney’s objections weren’t as eye-popping as national security adviser John Bolton’s own departure from Trump's foreign policy notions. On North Korea, Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week” pressed Bolton:
From the beginning, we’ve also included chemical and biological weapons in the elimination of their weapons of mass destruction. This is important to us because of our deployed forces in South Korea. BOLTON: Time — the historical lesson is time is inevitably on the side of the proliferator in the long run. Right now I think it’s the president’s judgment, and I think it’s correct, that the economic leverage that we have because of the sanctions puts the pressure on North Korea. And it’s one reason why all of the pundits and all of the experts predicting a deal in Hanoi were wrong, because the leverage is on our side right now, not on North Korea’s.
