For his part, Trump says he is cleaning up"the mess" left behind by predecessors, from bad trade deals across the globe to protracted military conflicts in Iran and Afghanistan.
Richard Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations, said the fundamental problem with Trump's approach to foreign policy is that he sets sky-high goals, but is unwilling or unable to deliver on them. Others echoed that assessment but said Trump has exacerbated that disconnect with contradictory positions coming from within the White House.
Trump's advisers seem"more willing to bandy about the threat of the use of military force, whereas he is far less inclined to do so," Malley said. That split between Trump and his advisers creates one layer of confusion, Malley said, and a second one comes from"a tug of war within own mind." Alterman said economic pressure, like the sanctions that Trump has slapped on the Maduro government, almost never lead to regime change or a popular revolt against an authoritarian leader. But Trump doesn't seem to really want to take the next step of military intervention in places like Venezuela.
Obama would of got some, butt ...
Lol
There is an unqualified conman in charge. The GOP are going to just sit there and let him bring the country down. It’s sad to watch. Nobody has the guts to do what’s right. We are going to have a mess to clean up once trump is gone. A big mess.
😂😂😂😂😂drama queens spinning incredible economic growth
Stop reporting in a manner that doesn’t help us as a country... just because your partisan.. it’s bad for America.. instead we should harrass the changes and see how we can all move forward together
That makes no sense n is not true. He is right not to let China take advantage of us and for China to back away from a deal that levels the trade between our countries because their hoping a Democrat unseats him should tell you all you need to know and that is that Trump is right
Trump does not know what he is doing. Total incompetence. And he’s surrounded himself with people who are also completely incompetent
Economic boom just around the corner, Debbie downers
Keep telling yourself that
SPREADING THE PROPAGANDA.................
And being as u seem to hate America this makes u happy?
Trump is doing good for america and americans
Diabolically duplicitous headline USAToday
Fake news.
NOT!! You're delusional
Did you ever get the feeling that the unbelievably negative media has played a horrible role in this.
That’s what you liberal media want plus you want the economy to fail so trump doesn’t get re-elected so in essence you want your country to do bad no matter what to get him of his post
His setbacks have been better than his predecessors accomplishments so he's still one up on all of them
Trump doesn’t know how to make a deal? Color me shocked!!
Oh yes, I'm the great Negotiator, pretending that I'm doing well My need is such; I pretend too much, I'm lonely but no one can tell. Oh yes, I'm the great Negotiator, A drift in a world of my own I play the game; but to my real shame You've let me to dream all alone.
Fake news
This is what happens when the top 'leader' is a mentally unstable, incompetent, vindictive and just generally ignorant of the world around him. And it won't be the last series of setbacks, either.
Biggest loser in history!!!!
Fake biased news by clowns
They were setbacks indeed, but hardy stunning. We have been getting screwed for years and it’s going to take those countries a little time to learn how to play fair and get along.
I’m not stunned. Are you stunned? Trump’s got this. Calm down.
MAGA Landslide2020
Stunning? To who?
Wrong again
Is anyone surprised, art of the deal my ass !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t see any setbacks.
Nah lets see how they turn out. We've learned to not trust anything fake news has to say
I don't remember even one Trump's foreign policy being a success till date.
It will get worse before it gets better. Chill
The United States has suffered a series of stunning setbacks in every governmental area due to trump. How’s that for better clickbait?
Who wrote this article and why are they still employed? THAT IS THE Stunning part...
Trump has been successfully played by better players who know he’s a con man.
just stop. You are embarrassing yourselves.
He was not qualified in the first place to become president.
Stunning? Pay closer attention
He has no foreign policy agenda other than worship me and I’ll be nice to you otherwise he’s trying to incite a war
No. We’re not “courting danger” by stopping China from taking over the world. Just the opposite. The Trump-hating US press needs to get over itself. Trump is 100% correct on China. Thank God someone gets it. ChinaTariffs ChinaUS
Trump suffered setbacks? The world suffered setbacks. These rogue nations don't operate in good faith.
You say stunning, I see predictable.
Only because he hasn't got a clue what foreign policy means. Although, he doesn't get domestic policy, either. So lose/lose.
What significant deal is trump known for to make him such a deal guru?
trump knows as much about foreign policy as I do about car mechanics (hint I have never driven or owned a car)
That’s what happens when you treat foreign policy as a reality TV show.
As long as the results benefit the USA then ok. We give away to much accessibility to not.
'Stunning' setbacks after dealing with Maduro, Kim Jong Un, and 'Iran's leaders'. These aren't setbacks, darling. It's called FOR-EIGN POL-I-CY. Something Obama never had. Morons.
LOSING OVER 500 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR FOR OVER 20YEARS HAS GETTOED AMERICA AND DESTROYED THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS-WAY MORE THAN A DAMN SETBACK !! MAGA 2020

Really? Stunning?
Anything he suffers is good and just dessert. He does not speak for most American people (thank God)
NOTHING happened yet.
Yeah sure... As stunning as the lying liberal media being proven to have lied about the FABRICATED story on collusion? CORRUPTMEDIA .....
2100 people wanting Trump gone. The Majority of the people did not Vote for him So the Majority can Vote him out.
Same as any other week !
and the left suffered ONE MAJOR DOMESTIC setback on Nov 8, 2016. You're welcome. Glad to help again in 2020! Cheers!
Probably because he’d have to have a foreign policy.
Trump. Impeached
Seriously. This is disgusting
