The Election Will Not Change American Foreign Policy

As I write this now, it appears that we will be having a major Republican sweep tonight, that is if it isn’t all rigged. Either way, American foreign policy will not change.

American foreign policy is largely a bipartisan effort and has been for decades. From Bush I to Clinton, there were only limited changes in American foreign policy. Both were globalist working to establish American hegemony in the post-Cold War era. Bush I, instead of allowing America to draw back its worldwide military, instead intervened and worked to make America the world’s hegemon.

Clinton did very little different than what Bush I would have done. Clinton didn’t push America into the liberal internationalist mode, as Bush I had already placed America there.

And when Bush 2 became president, everything continued humming along. And all of Bush 2’s neocon staffers and advisors and appointees rejoiced when they just happened to get the new “Pearl Harbor” moment they had been begging for, in writing, just a few years earlier. Bush 2 kicked off the Global War on Terror (what a ridiculous name) against held the Axis of Evil as enemies of all that was good and just.

Again, there was very little that Bush 2 did that Clinton would not have done. It was a continuation. And when Obama won, did he pull back, end the wars, end the occupation, end the empire? No. Obama took up to another level with more wars, more interventions, more targeted drone strikes, more secret wars, etc. Obama continued the direct foreign policy of his predecessors. Obama did not disturb the long-held policies that controlled US foreign policy.

Trump did disrupt things, to a point. It ended the TPP and related trade deals which would have empowered multinational corporations over local governments, a virtual declaration of independence for the multinational corporations. He imposed tariffs on China. He called out Europe on its lack of preparedness for war and for being dependent on Russia oil and gas. He improved relations in the Middle East. He walked into North Korea. He pushed for national sovereignty instead of globalist institutions.

In the end, the Deep State kept doing the same things it has been doing. US troops remained in Syria in spite of Trump’s orders to withdraw US troops. Trump couldn’t get US troops out of Afghanistan. Trump slowed down the looming conflict with Russia but did not clean up US involvement in Ukraine. He couldn’t even get the State Department from pushing Woke ideas around the world.

In spite of all that, the Republican Party leadership has largely been highly supportive of this ridiculous war in Ukraine, which the Deep State wanted and had been planning on since at least the 2014 Maidan coup. Only a handful of Republican leaders even would reconsider pulling back from being the world’s policeman and hegemon. They are twisting “America First” into an interventionist idea, rather than a realist withdrawal from nonstop engagement.

It has extremely sad to see so many demonstrate how easily they are manipulated into supporting something they don’t understand or know. They don’t understand what the US did in Ukraine or that the US is trying to act as emperor of the world. They do not know that Putin is actually a rather moderate Russian and even successor would be more aggressive than Putin. They don’t understand the long history of US involvement with Ukrainian Nazis. They don’t even see that the war is just an excuse to cover up the intentional economic devastation of the build back better/great reset WEF plan to push most of us into poverty and death.

Don’t be disappointed if nothing happens to change American foreign policy over the next two years, even this election is the greatest wipe out of a sitting president’s party in history. It is just what it is and nothing will fundamentally change until the US empire collapses.
