Personally, I’d like to see more of a careful approach of dealing with our allies. Pursuing Canadian steel tariffs doesn’t really do any good because the Canadians are going to retaliate meaning any economic advantage is cancelled out. Pulling troops out of Germany and threatening to pull out of nato is quite frankly stupid. Nato isn’t perfect; that much I agree with. But from a strategic position, Germany as well as nato is vital.
1. American taxpayer money needs to stop being spent in foreign countries.
2. Why should American taxpayer money be used to fund NATO ? Not every country is paying what they agreed to, Germany is one of the worst culprits. Before Trump we were dumb enough to pay more than we agreed to.
3. Strategically, we have nukes. We don't need Germany or NATO .
AMERICA FIRST !

The OP said he is voting for President Trump. If he does, that's all that matters. Everyone is not going to agree on everything regarding Trump, but in the end we all need to come together to do what is right and patriotic and vote for 4 more years of Trump. We need everyone to get out and vote for Trump because the dims are going to cheat and try to steal the election. That will be very difficult for them to do if Trump gets landslide support.

I think he is not great when it comes to foreign policy with our allies and can cause problems there.
Because you are buying the media version of it.
The US is FINALLY holding China accountable for their antics including spying, copying American patented items, and screwing us economically.
We are holding the other members of NATO accountable. They have sat back and watched the US spend trillions on defense since the implementation of NATO while they don’t bring their portion. It is past time for this.
Destroyed and replaced NAFTA. A disaster for the United States from the moment the ink dried.
Drawing down American presence overseas. That one used to be a dem favorite. Don’t know what happened to that.
New trade deal in works with the UK post brexit. (If not already done)
Relationship strong as ever with Japan... who’s car manufacturers have been building plants in the US.
Working on a trade deal with Brazil. Brazil is the 2nd largest economy in the Western Hemisphere. (Didn’t know that did you). Of course the House of Reps has opposed this. The majority there is beholden to China.
And on and on. Just because we aren’t. Kissing the arse of our allies and pulling their weight like the past admins, doesn’t mean the foreign policy is bad.
Stop letting the media tell you what to believe.

He’s human, try running the Country
I think some Trump voters feel obligated to come up with some flaw(s) in him to cite on demand, or else they run the risk of being chided by peers. Of course as we often see, the tweeting deal is probably the most popular one to adopt. Personally, I feel no such obligation and don't necessarily agree that there's any particular flaw that needs highlighting, but that's just me. Is he perfect, nope, but nor do I expect him to be. He does however happen to be quite satisfactory IMO for the position he currently fills.
Plus, I have a few flaws of my own, so to me it doesn't feel right nitpicking anyone else about their's. And this is all general commentary, not specifically judging OP or any other particular person. Just an observation.

Agree but the OP is clearly voting for Trump DESPITE thinking other presidents have had superior foreign policies which is NOT true at all.
Details matter. Just because CNN says Obama had a fantastic foreign policy does not make it true. Quite the opposite is true.

On the contrary. I hate that I have to hold my nose and sometimes support people. Like you. I generally hate republicans and most “conservatives”.
At least progressives openly hate me. People like you always stab me in the back.

Republicans have been so weak in fighting the opposition, for decades. The only man of honor they can claim is Reagan.
FINALLY there is a man in the WH that fights for US and can't be bought or controlled. He is acting for AMERICANS, whether Dem or Repub. He has seen the endless fleecing of the USA and is doing what he said he would, despite the greatest opposition attempt by all of DC, the media, and Hollywood.
How anyone can not respect that and not also willingly cast a vote for him, is beyond me.

His foreign policy is a Godsend. His NYC vibrato/demeanor is a necessary evil where we are today. America needs tough love more than ever.
Marxism isn’t the answer. As wretched as crony capitalism is, it’s still light years more humane than Marxism. The illusion that Marxism will not wield the same abuse of power by those in control is fantasy. It will be worse. My proof? A fricking history book.

My vote for Trump was more a vote against Hillary last election, I'm enthusiastically voting for Trump this time despite my dislike of him as person.
I have stated this same thing on this board and everywhere else so many times that it is tiresome to repeat it.
Trump is the savior of the American experiment in freedom and liberty for all. He is the man we needed at the time we faced.

What foreign policies do you not like of his? I will have the convo and be civil, but need specifics on what it is you don’t like??
Posted on 8/8/20 at 8:02 am to clhawkins19
The battle lines have been re-drawn. If someone is a conservative or even a republican, and you have even the slightest reservation in voting for Trump, then you have no clue what's at stake.
Most of these never-Trumpers think things will go back to 12 years ago if Biden wins. People, we are at an ideological and societal crossroads. Hey RINO's... GET YOUR HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES!!! At this point, you're either siding with America or you're siding with socialism.

Foreign policy: get and keep us out of war and work on trade issues.
What’s wrong with that?
Allies: Trump looks for symbolic allies and wants us out of parasitic relationships
What’s wrong why that?
Trump has been hounded by politically motivated investigations and allegations since winning office. Is he not allowed to push back against this?
Would a Clinton or Biden presidency improve the issues?
Nope.
