"He's too dumb to be hurting America on purpose"

the pettiness is for show for his base, it gets them pumped

that's putting the sail into the wind to power the strategy

he's a performance artist

Lol. Pence and others do the heavy lifting. He is amateur compared to them.

Pence was a PR move to get the evangelicals, as were sessions and some others

Those wanting to impeach Trump don't get that Pence is a political insider that knows how to get what he wants. So it was 4D chess to make his VP worse than himself.

it's how they got ann coulter and the like on board

then they were discarded

as were the less crazy natsec types like mattis

dont be surprised if pence is replaced with Nimrata

Pence was a PR move to cover for a guy with 2 divorces and a history of being a playboy

da fuck somebody like DONALD TRUMP is getting voted for by evangelicals?

but they are that dumb, as bannon predicted

then he was discarded too

It is a toxic mix of neo con and neo liberal foreign policy.

Both are pretty catastrophic world views.

who is repesenting the neoliberals in the trump foreign policy team

Those crashing and burning the EPA,etc. xD

those aren't neoliberals

and you said 'foreign policy'

Yeah they are. It is essentially the war lobby elite.

both have their views on war, but there are no neolibs in trump admin

There is a correlation between the fossil fuel die hards and the war lobby.

neolib foreign policy is lead by Richard Haass

EPA is lead by wheeler, definitely not a neoliberal

he's a former coal lobbyist

In what way? At the core of neo-liberal policy is to destroy the govt from within and make it dysfunctional for corporate elites.

That was literally the 1970s through to the 2000s. Still continues as well. Just shock therapy is less pushed these days.

the neolibs and neocons are very 'right' of Lefists and Progressives, but they aren't the same thing

And mass privatization is also their baby.

As are private armies like Blackwater or "Academia" as they call themselves now.

They formed a tight alliance of convenience over the Iraq and Afghanistan war, and are more than happy to plunge us into Iran.

Granted that there are still neo liberal dissidents, and they aren't as well polished as traditional neo libs.

But if you look at a lot of what they have done domestically, it falls into some general neo liberal policy aims.

the neolibs are against the china trade war and tariffs, the situation with canada, SALT deduction removal

But they are also supportive of unilateral wars that help them profit in other countries.

there really isnt that much trump has done domestically, or at all outside of huge major goofs

nah the main neolib foreign policy is the mistaken belief america can replicate itself in other countries and perserving the global liberal trade order

trump is 100% against that

They hate Trump still, but that doesn't mean they won't take a major feast like a war in Iran.
