Sometimes individuals from another political spectrum have good insight

Ian Bremmer of the Eurasia Group, I believe, has some good strategic insight:
"I’m far from a Trump supporter.
But impossible not to call Iran outcome a win for US president and a big opportunity going forward."
LINK
"Trump’s two notable foreign policy wins: Massive escalation vs much weaker countries.
Threatening Mexico with economic catastrophe if they didn’t tighten their border. They did.
Military decapitation of Iran after strike against US base and embassy. Virtually no retaliation."

Trumps genius is he knows how to use leverage.
And the US has it in spades.

Nothing Trump has done suggests he is treating China in the same manner. Kind of a pointless take really. I’m not sure why it was even needed.

Much different and more likely successful approach than his predecessors "red line" that was written with disappearing ink.
Nation leaders, like children, need to know there are consequences for their actions. It is really basic.
