Part 3/8:
One of the podcast's major discussions centers around Donald Trump’s America First policy. Hanson reviews an executive order that emphasizes prioritizing American interests in foreign policy as an unequivocal directive, showcasing the shift from previous administrations that often seemed to negotiate from a position of weakness.
Hanson argues that the spirit of this policy aligns with the fundamental notion that nations should inherently prioritize their sovereignty and the welfare of their citizens. This brings forth discussions about recent happenings in the immigration arena, particularly involving Mexico and cartel-related violence, illuminating the need for a more robust U.S. border policy.
