*A Look at Trump's Real Foreign Policy Agenda: Unpredictable and Dangerous*

Donald Trump is ramping up his efforts to appear serious about foreign
policy and convince a very resistant Republican Party that he's a plausible
commander-in-chief. Just last night, CNN reported that
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GpZZ1wH-vs&feature=youtu.be> he “wants to
come across as a man of substance.” But every time he opens his mouth, he
seems to undermine that goal.

On Monday, Donald Trump sent shockwaves through the UK
<https://www.hillaryclinton.com/briefing/updates/2016/05/16/trump-rebukes-top-ally-amid-ongoing-push-for-warmer-relations-with-putin-russia/>,
one of our oldest and closest allies, as he insulted David Cameron and
casually predicted our special relationship might turn sour under a Trump
presidency. Apparently he doesn't have the same contempt for Kim Jong Un as
he does for Cameron -- Tuesday he turned around and said he would have “no
problem”
<http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/18/us/politics/kim-jong-un-donald-trump.html>
speaking with the North Korean dictator, whom he previously praised
<http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-north-korea-kim-jong-un-2016-1>
for executing his uncle.

He has drawn heavy criticism from leaders in the England
<http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/david-cameron-refuses-to-withdraw-remarks-branding-donald-trump-divisive-and-stupid-a7013846.html>,
Germany
<http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-trump-germany-idUSKCN0XP1C2>
and France
<http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/279532-paris-mayor-donald-trump-is-so-stupid>,
while earning praise from the Russians
<http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/04/donald-trump-2016-russia-today-rt-kremlin-media-vladimir-putin-213833>
(Trump is, of course, a Russia expert -- he hosted Miss Universe contest
there
<http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/05/06/donald-trump-russia-miss-universe/84024666/>)
and generating excitement in Iran
<http://www.vox.com/2016/5/11/11638656/iranians-prefer-trump>. He seems
dead-set on weakening our allies and emboldening our adversaries.

With each new day seems to come new comments from Trump that underscore
just how ill-prepared he is to be commander-in-chief. But let's not forget
about the dangerous set of proposals he's already put forward on this
campaign -- here are just a few of his many bad ideas:

   -

   Banning all Muslims
   <https://www.donaldjtrump.com/press-releases/donald-j.-trump-statement-on-preventing-muslim-immigration>
   from entering America.

   -

   Allowing more countries
   <http://www.vox.com/2016/3/30/11332074/donald-trump-nuclear-weapons-japan-south-korea-saudi-arabia>
   to get nuclear weapons, including
   <http://cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com/2016/03/29/full-rush-transcript-donald-trump-cnn-milwaukee-republican-presidential-town-hall/>
   Japan, South Korea, and Saudi Arabia.

   -

   Intentionally killing
   <http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/02/politics/donald-trump-terrorists-families/index.html?sr=twCNN120215donald-trump-terrorists-families/0141PMVODtopLink&linkId=19235497>
   innocent family members of terrorist fighters.

   -

   Bringing back torture
   <http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2016/02/06/donald_trump_and_ted_cruz_advocate_bringing_back_waterboarding.html>,
   which doesn’t work
   <http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/mar/30/hillary-clinton/evidence-backs-hillary-clinton-claim-torture-count/>
   and makes our troops less safe.

   -

   Walking away
   <http://info.msnbc.com/_news/2016/03/30/35330907-full-transcript-msnbc-town-hall-with-donald-trump-moderated-by-chris-matthews?lite>
   from NATO unless we can extract more money from our allies.

   -

   Sending tens of thousands
   <http://www.weeklystandard.com/trump-calls-for-20000-30000-troops-to-fight-isis/article/2001505>
   of troops back to the Middle East.

   -

   Demanding that <http://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/1.710180> Israel pay
   us back for our defense aid.
