In a speech to supporters in New Hampshire on Saturday, former President Donald Trump pledged to pursue a foreign policy centered on peacemaking if he secures victory in the 2024 election.
Pledging to restore “American strength, power, and prestige” around the world, Trump said to him, “Peace through strength is not just a political slogan, it is a moral duty — and it is my commitment to you, the American people.”
“As president, I will restore American strength, power, and prestige — and I will be your peacemaker in the Oval Office,” Trump told Granite State rallygoers in Claremont on Saturday, according to Newsmax.
The former president made several campaign pledges and statements during his speech, including a reminder that he is the only 2024 presidential candidate who can stop President Joe Biden from slow-walking into World War III.
“So whether you are a Democrat, Republican, or independent: If you don’t want your sons and daughters drafted to fight and die in distant foreign lands, if you don’t want your nation wrecked, if you don’t want your economy destroyed, if you don’t want American blood and American treasure squandered in a needless global war, then your choice in this election is simple: You must vote for President Donald J. Trump,” he said.
Newsmax added:
Trump also repeated his vow to bring back the Trump “travel ban” from majority Muslim nations that openly hate America and support terrorist proxies in the Middle East and his self-vowed “largest domestic deportation operation” in world history to investigate, find, and force expulsion of Hamas-supporting protesters, southern border human traffickers, and illegal aliens.
Speaking on Veterans Day, Trump denounced “the years of scandal, betrayal, and neglect of the Obama-Biden administration” foisted on America’s veterans.
“They were terrible, and they were treated terribly, and you couldn’t do a damn thing about it,” Trump said. “This wasn’t prime time for our people, and they weren’t able to defend themselves. They had people who would really mistreat our veterans, and we couldn’t do a thing about it because of the laws — civil service and otherwise. You couldn’t do a thing. They could be as bad as they wanted.”
The former president enthusiastically recalled a famous line from his successful television show, “The Apprentice.”
“We said, ‘you’re fired; get out,'” Trump declared to a cheering audience. “I don’t know if you know, Biden wants to put them all back, can you believe it?”
Simultaneously, there are ongoing endeavors to prevent Trump from appearing on the 2024 ballot, utilizing the “insurrection” clause of the 14th Amendment.
“No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof,” Section 3 of the amendment reads. “But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”
The Minnesota Supreme Court recently decided against those attempting to exclude Trump from the state’s ballot.
In a recent order, the court stated that neither the courts nor election officials possess the authority to block the Republican Party from including Trump as a candidate on the GOP primary ballot.
Five justices provided their input on the matter, with two choosing to recuse themselves from the decision, as reported by The Hill.
