Summary
In this episode, we dive deep into America's evolving role on the world stage and the principles of the Trump doctrine. I lay out why I believe we need to avoid forever wars while still maintaining a strong military presence globally. We discuss the importance of addressing threats from nations like Iran and the lessons learned from past conflicts. Additionally, I highlight the recent polling data showing Trump's rising approval ratings and why more Americans are seeing the strength in his leadership. Tune in for a direct and unapologetic take on foreign policy and America's responsibility as a global leader.
