Trump’s Speech In Saudi Arabia Was A Tour De Force…

I urge everyone to watch the entire speech yet the foreign policy vision Trump articulated today is a vilipended renunciation of neoconservativism/neoliberalism and the disastrous foreign policy agenda the UniParty® has promoted since the end of the Cold War.
Trump has had a very good week.
“It's crucial for the wider world to know this great transformation has not come from Western interventionists, or people flying in beautiful planes giving you lectures on how to live and how to govern your own affairs.
In the end, the so-called nation builders wrecked far more nations than they built and the interventionalists were intervening in complex societies that they did not even understand themselves.
No, the gleaming marvels of Riyadh and Abu Dhabi were not created by the so-called nation builders, neocons, or liberal non-profits like those who spent trillions and trillions of dollars failing to develop Baghdad.
Instead, the birth of a modern Middle East has been brought by the people of the region themselves, the people that are right here, the people that have lived here all their lives, developing your own sovereign countries, pursuing your own unique visions and charting your own destinies in your own way.
They told you how to do it, but they had no idea how to do it themselves. Peace, prosperity, and progress ultimately came not from a radical rejection of your heritage, but rather from embracing your national traditions and embracing that same heritage that you love so dearly.
You achieved a modern miracle the Arabian way.”

I agree. First president in 60 years to go and tell non-Democratic countries they have a right to self determination without the west nation “killing” everything.
Let them and their people determine their path. Call us if you need something and we’ll talk. Otherwise, peace out.

That's actually profound.

The full speech if interested:
Still on his A-game.

It's amazing how long he can talk and cover every topic under the sun. You are left with no doubt where he stands.
the only negative he repeats himself often.

Olive branch to Iran is great. Especially making that speech in Saudi of all places. Shows the Saudis are willing to follow our lead.

Since what he says is right on, is repeating himself a bad thing? Food for thought

One of the great President speeches that should be remembered for many years.

I must admit - and have always voted for DJT - but he has exceeded my expectations and has nothing to do with the nin-kum-poop he followed.

You don’t miss Biden’s random outbursts and uncontrolled volume of his speech?
(Not directed at you, just making fun of Biden)

The shite heads on this board will hate it.

When delivering a message you first tell them what your going to tell them. Then you tell them. Then you tell them what you told them. It sounds repetitive, but it leaves no doubt what the message is.

Tell them what you're going to tell them.
Tell them.
Tell them what you told them.
It's worked for years.

It’s intentional.

Levin was triggered?

He’s not a great speaker; he’s only good. But he is a great communicator. And a great empathizer. Plus, he is a showman; every speech is entertaining in a fashion that renders the viewer unable to take his eyes off him. The only other guy like that I can think of is Dave Chappelle.

It’s sad. We are a Christian nation and should be supporting Israel. Trump snubs Israel and gives a speech to these mudshits. Trump should not be in a Muslim country. They are our enemy.

Doubt it, Saudi and Israel aren't enemies. Saudi and Iran are bitter enemies.
The Saudis are one of the better (Ie. Western friendly) partners in the middle east. The main problem with the Saudis is their awful human rights record.
