Summary

The only thing worse than seeing Obama’s policies actualized is having them achieved under our banner. In this episode of the Conservative Conscience, we discuss the foreign policy betrayals of the administration, promoted by the likes of H.R. McMaster and Dina Powell.  From policies towards the PLO and the Saudis, to Turkey and Iran, this administration is pursuing the very same agenda conservatives blasted under Obama.  Have we lost our intellectual honesty to such a point that we will now bless policies we hated just a few months ago?  We further delve into the danger of the Saudis and Erdogen in funding a subversion agenda on our own soil and how that is the front line in the war against jihad, not refereeing Islamic civil wars.  Thus, to sell out to the Saudis under the guise of fighting ISIS is completely backwards. The key is for conservatives not to get distracted by the smoke of optics and bluster of rhetoric, but focus on the policy outcomes behind the curtain.  Look at what is actually happening on the policies and issues from which the media will often distract us, and it will become clear we are losing the battle for control of this administration.  Too many people are focusing on Trump’s speeches he’s given overseas and not on the broader policy direction of the administration.  More than with any other administration, the policies are not reflecting the rhetoric of the president himself.  That is a problem.  What’s the point of obsessing over defending this administration from all the scandals if they are not even promoting our policies anyway?  This is why it’s so important Trump hear from conservatives and understand that we are not ok with him selling out on foreign policy.  If we don’t advocate for our priorities, who will?      Show links: Trump’s Saudi sellout Obama style: Tillerson apologizes to Mexico Trump caves for now on Obamacare subsidies Cruz warned about the embassy betrayal Erdogen’s jihad on our soil The people around Trump don’t get the Islamic threat   Learn more about your ad choices.
