What People Got Wrong About Trump's Foreign Policy | Victor Davis Hanson
In this clip, Victor makes the case that although Trump was known to be 'isolationist', the evidence suggests that during his tenure, America provided a stronger deterrent to aggressors.
It is clear that despite China, Russia, Hamas, Afghanistan, was the world more deterred.
Victor Davis Hanson is an American classicist, military historian, columnist, and farmer. He has been a commentator on contemporary politics for the National Review and The Washington Times and is currently the Martin and Illie Anderson Senior Fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution.
In addition to writing hundreds of articles, book reviews and newspaper editorials, Hanson is also the author of twenty-four books and hosts a regular podcast series, 'The Victor Davis Hanson Show'. Hanson was awarded the National Humanities Medal in 2007 by President George W. Bush, and was a presidential appointee in 2007-08 on the American Battle Monuments Commission. His latest book, The Dying Citizen, was published in October 2021. And his next book, soon to be released on May the 7th this year, The End of Everything, How Wars Descend Into Annihilation.

Mr.Victor is as always spot on.
Trump's foreign policy was the best since Reagan. For once we were at peace with the world. Trump is not a political fanatic. He's a businessman, a realtor in particular. For real estate to thrive you need peace and cooperation from all parties involved.

I went to hong kong in 2019 to protest with the brave hong kongers. They were carrying the usa flag. They said to me they supported trump because he was taking on china. No president had done that before.

Trump had the portrait of Jackson behind him very often.
VDH is the best political commentator in America, hands down
The old adage 'actions speak louder than words' applies very well in this matter. Trump does what he promises to do and his actions have produced positive results. Biden does NOT do what he says and his actions have had mostly negative consequences.
Victor should be a required reading by every US student
The Dumbocrats are misunderstanding Trump's "America First" policy to be the same as theirs was 100 years ago. What Trump means is that it has to BENEFIT America.
Trump 2024!
President Trump did a great job in his first administration. 🇺🇸Business men know how to run things. 🙏he wins in 2024. Otherwise we are doomed.
Wow I just had to explain this same thing to my Mom.
Have to say I thought Trump winning was a joke, but I was genuinely impressed by his presidency, and I appreciate his accomplishments. I've even grown to love the trash-talking that I first thought was so uncouth. These are dirty, messy times, and we need people to call the nonsense out for what it is.
On point as always. Thank you.

That’s a load of holding garbage. There is no NATO membership fee. The 2% of GDP is a suggestion, not a requirement. And it’s outdated because it fails to account for cooperative research, development, and co-production, as well as non-financial contributions like airspace clearance or contributions to coalitions and peacekeeping operations. Anyone who tells you Europe needs to pay 2% is conning you and exploiting your ignorance.
100%
Amen.
The problem is most voters don't have a single clue about foreign policy or geopolitics in general. The media has left them totally clueless about what is actually happening out there.
Jacksonian means President Andrew Jackson. I thought this interview was an excellent appraisal of the situation.
