Pres. Trump took a victory lap at the UNGA. But his key campaigns have almost all stalled out, with critics saying some are failures.
President Donald Trump took a victory lap on the world stage in his third address to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday. But while he took the opportunity to tout his"America First" foreign policy, his key campaigns have almost all stalled out, with critics saying some are failures.
"Around the world, what were supposed to have been marquee accomplishments are nothing more than empty diplomatic shells -- if that," said Ned Price, a former CIA and National Security Council official in the Obama administration who now is the policy director for the National Security Action group."Rather than admit his pursuits are a work in progress, Trump -- as is his wont -- can't help but to wrap them in the guise of premature success.
.@MarthaRaddatz presses Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on the strategy on Iran:"Isn't this campaign having the opposite effect you hoped for?" "Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself," Trump told the audience, shocking some staid diplomats.
