Donald Trump makes dangerous tweet decisions - North Korea is nobody's friend
Trump makes foreign policy decisions without consulting allies
Tweet policies are dangerous. Echo opinion letter published in the TCPalm a Florida newspaper.
When asked why, Trump’s press secretary stated that the North Korean dictator was Trump’s friend and did not deserve these additional sanctions.
The North Korean dictator, like his late father and grandfather, is a ruthless mass murderer who is not going to denuclearize his nation just because Donald Trump likes him (and other tyrannical murdering dictators like Putin and the Saudi Crown Prince!). This is just the latest example of Trump making an abrupt foreign policy decision without consulting his advisers or our allies.

Donald Trump’s most recent foreign policy reversal toward North Korea continues to create confusion for both our allies and enemies. Less than 24 hours after his secretary of the treasury announced well-deserved additional economic sanctions on North Korea, Trump suddenly announced that he was rescinding these sanctions- in a tweet.

After his first meeting with the North Korean dictator, Trump shocked South Korean leaders and his own military by cancelling the annual joint military exercises with South Korea. These joint military exercises that anger the North Korean dictator have been considered critical to the defense of South Korea.
Another example of President Trump making foreign policy decisions without notifying his advisers and our allies, was his tweet that the 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria would be completely withdrawn within 30 days. That shocking tweet led to the resignation of Secretary of Defense James Mattis, who had not been consulted.
Fortunately, under pressure from members of Congress, Trump at least for now has reversed that spontaneous and dangerous decision. Trump’s military and foreign policy decisions that surprise our allies and enemies make our nation less safe. It is dangerous for our nation and the world to have a president who makes impactful decisions without careful consideration and consultation with our allies.
