In a lengthy interview with the New York Times, Donald Trump articulates his foreign policy principles: not isolationist, but other nations will have to pay for the the benefits of U.S. military protection. 

Trump has offered the least aggressive foreign policy platform among Republicans, which has drawn accusations of “isolationism,” a label he rejects. 

We have been disrespected, mocked, and ripped off for many, many years by people that were smarter, shrewder, tougher.
Donald Trump
