Donald Trump reveals foreign policy team in meeting with The Washington Post

Donald Trump revealed part of his foreign policy advisory team and outlined an unabashedly non-interventionist approach to world affairs during a wide-ranging meeting Monday with The Washington Post's editorial board.

The Republican presidential front-runner listed for the first time five of the individuals who are part of a team, chaired by Sen. Jeff Sessions (Ala.), counseling him on foreign affairs and helping to shape his policies.

Walid Phares, who you probably know. Ph.D., adviser to the House of Representatives. He’s a counter-terrorism expert

General Kellogg, a former Army lieutenant general, is an executive vice president at Virginia-based CACI International, a Virginia-based intelligence and information technology consulting firm with clients around the world

Joe Schmitz, [was] inspector general at the Department of Defense

Ph.D.George Papadopoulos directs an international energy center at the London Centre of International Law Practice. He previously advised the presidential campaign of Ben Carson and worked as a research fellow at the Hudson Institute, a conservative think tank in Washington.

Carter Page, a graduate of the United States Naval Academy and now the managing partner of Global Energy Capital, is a longtime energy-industry executive who rose through the ranks at Merrill Lynch around the world before founding his current firm. He previously was a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations where he focused on the Caspian Sea region and the economic development in former Soviet states, according to his company biography and documents from his appearances at panels over the past decade.

““Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.”

That is so clever. I wish I had thought to use it to defend the wife of Ted Cruz when she was attacked for reportedly being connected in some way to the CFR. Attacking her was then considered an honorable way to attack Ted Cruz.

But that was then. Now, Donald Trump is known to be close and cozy to the head man of the COUNCIL OF FORIEGN RELATIONS and everything is fine, just fine .

“Its a war tactic. You should reach The Art of War. You interface with the enemy...”

Kind of like keeping your friends close, and your enemies closer. It’s a saying in my family you know... :)

Seriously, I’ve long wanted to read that book; I think it’s high time I finally did it.

Sister Irene Marie. 4 foot 2 inches short, 80 years old and armed with chalk and a steel ruler. Don’t know how she did it but Sister Irene Marie could see clear through the back of that penguin habit as she was writing on the chalkboard and as the inevitable disruption would occur, utilizing her keenly-honed skills and strategy from years of hunting and trapping young 5th grade boys, she would slowly turn toward the class, locking her beady eyes in on her hapless target. Deer firmly in headlights, she would launch that piece of chalk at a velocity that would leave Nolan Ryan in awe, stunning her prey (usually Kevin McDonahue) with a well-placed shot to the forehead and before the poor kid could gather himself, she would pounce with her thumb and forefinger clamping on to his ear like a pair of vice grips.

Prey secured, she would march her victim to the front of the classroom where he had his date with the 12” steel “Motivator”.

We all had at least one date with the Motivator. You couldn’t graduate until you met the Motivator. I’m pretty sure that was a law or something...
