Opinion: Pompeo’s RNC address tells you everything you need to know about him
Pompeo ignored the fallout from Trump’s erratic diplomacy. “Because of President Trump, NATO is stronger,” he contended. NATO allies may be paying more for collective defense, which is a plus, but many analysts see a sharp deterioration in trust and confidence among key NATO allies.
The Middle East was the final example of progress that Pompeo cited, but here, again, the record is problematic. Pompeo touted the drone attacks that killed, head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ elite Quds Force, and Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State. But Trump’s “maximum pressure” campaign against Iran hasn’t brought Tehran to the negotiating table, as Trump predicted it would.
