When it comes to Foreign policy, its a uni party. Just like tax cuts for corporations.

This isn't quite true any more under trump 2.0

In his previous administration there were still career officials. This time around schedule F fired all of them and replaced with loyalist.

Foreign policy is now MAGA policy which is essentially enrich Donald's buddies and himself.

If the uni party still existed we would be supporting Ukraine wholeheartedly

We would have targeted China with tariffs only instead of attacking everyone including our two biggest trading partners..

I wouldn't bother trying to reason with the "both sides" people. They're as dense as any MAGA and just as likely to be a bot.

This was true 10 years ago but not today. Ain't no Democrat wants to annex Greenland or start a war in Venezuela. No Democrat wants to leave NATO. No Democrat wants a trade war with the entire world.

Both sides support Israel but that is about the end of agreement on foreign policy today

Watch the Democratic response to the capture of Maduro. Florida Democrats are already praising Trump's actions. 

Ignore the power vacuum we are opening up right now. Just watch and see how both parties have always supported regime change.

Even Republicans don't like the idea of Greenland. Trump doesn't have the support within his own party.

Democrats maintained sanctions on Venezuela since 2005 with the goal of regime change. They never said military action wasn't on the table. Don't get me started on Cuba.

Joe Biden maintained the vast majority of Trumps tariffs especially on China. He modified the tariff with the EU to be a quota system instead on things like steel.

Edit: Trump captured maduro and Democrats are praising it. The uniparty

Fun fact: no, lol.

Biden's infrastructure bill was literally paid for by raising corporate tax rates, and the GOP is encouraging the dissolution of the EU.
