The result would enable Trump to make sweeping changes to the U.S. stance on issues ranging from the Ukraine war to trade with China, as well as to the federal institutions that implement - and sometimes constrain - foreign policy, the aides and diplomats said.
During his 2017-2021 term, Trump struggled to impose his sometimes impulsive and erratic vision on the U.S. national security establishment.
He often voiced frustration at top officials who slow-walked, shelved, or talked him out of some of his schemes. Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper said in his memoir that he twice raised objections to Trump’s suggestion of missile strikes on drug cartels in Mexico, the U.S.'s biggest trade partner. The former president has not commented.
“President Trump came to realize that personnel is policy,” said Robert O’Brien, Trump’s fourth and final national security adviser. “At the outset of his administration, there were a lot of people that were interested in implementing their own policies, not the president’s policies.”
Having more loyalists in place would allow Trump to advance his foreign policy priorities faster and more efficiently than he was able to when previously in office, the current and former aides said.
Because every poll has him winning. I know it’s 11 months to the election but people have to realize the real danger he poses to America.
You are preaching to the choir my friend.
The problem is these posts are on a website that most Republicans aren’t even going to visit, and the common electorate is not going to visit and it’s a fairly small website compared to the likes of Reddit and x, and so all this is doing is agitating the choir of people who are not likely to vote for that shit stain.
Like I get it, the world is in a pretty shitty place but telling me how and why I shouldn’t vote for Trump is pointless because I’m already not going to vote for that fucker. You put a gun to my head and tell me to put a check mark next to his name or you pull the trigger I’m going to tell you I hope you brought enough fucking ammo to kill me.
These polls aren’t to be trusted 90% of the time. I could poll my friends and slap it on the right news site and push it as legit.
Most polls don’t express a methodology and it has been realized polls don’t usually reach the young voters. Polling suggested a red wave that never came, twice. Polling had Hillary winning and she didn’t.
In my opinion it is borderline psy op at this point and not something to view as a scientific backbone.
Polling suggest Trump winning could be to scare voters towards Biden or maybe to rally Trumpers into believing they have a shot because a lot of them are pretty demoralized and uninterested in Trump anymore regardless of what they try to sell you. Yeah we all know pro Trump people but at this point there are more anti Biden people and that just isn’t that strong, most Biden voters are anti Biden.
