Basically it comes down to sovereignty and Trump’s emphasis on the importance of each country to defend it’s sovereignty. Tillerson says that Trump argued that every country should look to helping their own people first as a principle of governance. And there’s a lot of truth to that, but when it tends towards isolationism, you end up giving up the world to those who are willing to challenge the world order and invade it’s neighbors…. lookin’ in your general direction, Russia….
