The Conservative Principle

[vanzandt]

The president of The USA, having the sole voice in the establishment of USA foreign policy, sends troops wherever he/she desires, withdraws troops wherever and whenever he/she desires, applies tariffs or removes tariffs, appoints or removes ambassadors and Secretary of State who carry his/her foreign policy to each nation and answers to him/her. This is only a small list of the examples of how the president establishes and projects US foreign policy. Congreff does not determine the direction of US foreign policy. ---By the way, recently when Kashoggi was murdered, the country looked to the president to see how we would react and it was his sole decision on what to do. Finally, if the president didn't have the sole voice on foreign policy, then why would the false narrative concerning the Ukranian call be able to be put forth at all?

The President doesn't have "sole power" over our troops. You're wrong.

As per Article 1 of the Constitution, Congress has the power to declare war. Now I can't imagine a situation where Congress would want war and the President wouldn't... but regardless, Congress can declare war... they don't need the President's blessing.

Also, he needs Senate approval for Ambassadors and Consuls. Same goes for Treaties, and they require two thirds of the Senate.

.....So he/she is certainly not the "sole voice" of foreign policy. Period.

And besides.... what is your point anyway? The whole issue here is he 2-faced and back-stabbed the Kurds (just like he did Cohen and others)... despite the advice of generals, advisors, and the intelligence agencies. Now Turkey has shut off the escape routes and the mass slaughter of soldiers that helped us in our efforts is imminent.

So what exactly is your point? Despite you being wrong on what you wrote about "sole power"?

One thing to remember is that in The US, the executive branch is unitary------ie made up of one person---and that individual has the sole voice for establishing foreign policy. Most Libprogs and Morlibons are unable to comprehend this basic Constitutional tenet.

In addition to being the sole voice for American foreign policy as I have shown, the president of The USA does not answer to the House of Representatives. At any time, he/she can exercise "Executive Privilege". Trump went above and beyond in being transparent by releasing the transcript of his phone call with the Ukrainian president. He didn't have to do that, but since the call was benign and Ukraine said it was ok to release, he went ahead and did so. With regard to any other subpoenas or requests from The House, he would be quite correct in just ignoring the queries.

"Sole voice".... ummm, no, you haven't shown.
B1 for real.... are you that ignorant? You can't see that if Congress declares war on a country, that's pretty much a foreign policy statement wouldn't ya say?
They don't have to ask for permission from the President.

As enumerated by Article 1 of the Constitution.

He is therefore NOT the "sole voice" Mr. Constitutional scholar...

is it wrong I keep b1s2 off ignore just to see him get dunked on by everyone? I feel like I'm taking pleasure on the bullying of a retard

I recommend not paying attention to polls that get released by major media outlets or players like Gallup or Quinnipiac. This admonition particularly applies to so called "impeachment" polls. These folks are heavily tilting their samples towards Democrats/Libprogs. They are in cahoots with The Left and are using polls to influence, rather than reflect, public opinion.

et tu fox?

Under the Constitution, the President serves as head of state and head of government. In most other governments, the two functions are separate. As head of state, the President is, in effect, the personification of the U.S. and its visible image, its sole voice and its primary representative to the outside world. As head of government, he formulates foreign policy, supervises its implementation and attempts to obtain the resources to support it. He also organizes and directs the departments and agencies that play a part in the foreign policy process. In other words, while some believe that others are involved in the establishment of foreign polcy, they are grossly misled. The president simply has other people involved to gather resources and effect logistics of the president's doctrine.

Currently, the Democrats are attempting impeachment by just a small portion of the country. Basically, LA, SF and NY. The rest of the country be damned.
