Trump leaning into foreign policy fights to cement 'America First' promise

While President Donald Trump‘s campaign focused on fixing problems at home, such as the economy and immigration, his first few weeks prioritized foreign policy initiatives.

On the campaign trail, Trump discussed foreign and domestic policy, but most of his speeches focused on fixing problems he said were caused by the Biden administration. Since being inaugurated, he has signed executive orders rolling back diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and taken swings at cutting back the size of the federal workforce. However, the policies that dominated his first weeks have related more to his promises to “prevent World War Three” and “end the global chaos and restore Peace through Strength.”
