President Donald Trump won the White House pledging to wind down the nation's many foreign entanglements and put 'America First'. 9News

Aware of the potential backlash from within his party, the president is trying to play down the possibility of hostilities.

"It does concern me that the president has Bolton and a lot of these neocons advising him. That's clearly not what he ran on and what most Americans want." Yet the Republican Party under Trump's leadership has shifted away from wanting the United States to play an aggressive role in world affairs.Foreign policy hawks in the GOP who have long embraced a muscular foreign policy have been marginalised in recent years, dismissed as "globalists."

"Whatever needs to be done to keep Iran from becoming a nuclear power needs to happen," Falwell said in an interview.Potential military conflict being described as "delicate balance" politically While military conflict would likely be unpopular among Republican voters, the politics on Iran are nuanced.

Donald Trump no 'dope', it seems, as refugee deal puts heat on Scott MorrisonHe declared the refugee swap agreed by Malcolm Turnbull and Barack Obama a stupid deal. But the revelation that two alleged murderers were settled in Australia shows Donald Trump may have had the last laugh. ABC does a 180ᵒ turnaround from its standard position of acceptance for all refugees & encouragement of open borders, simply to own Morrison & the govt. Hypocritical. The USA has no active battleships so they literally can't have deployed any, please issue a correction. We know of just 2 of these people. Trump didn't take in hundreds of people just to get rid of 2. There must be a lot more we took in. Who are they and *where* are they? SlowMo & Dutton have a lot to answer.

'Totally brilliant': Trump's new immigration plan will focus on 'genius'More campaign document than policy, the plan appears to be a White House attempt to stretch beyond the 'build-the-wall' rhetoric that swept the President to office. Like his wife! So it would have excluded Melania and her parents. 1. Because he’s a racist, he doesn’t think there are any non-white geniuses, so this policy suits what he believes is necessary. As a racist. 2. No geniuses, unless they’re absolutely desperate, as is the case with Central Americans, would aspire to go to Trump’s America anyway.
