Whip Emmer: “America is back. That was the message heard around the world following President-elect Donald Trump’s successful trip to Paris over the weekend. Watching America reassert its leadership on the global stage was both refreshing and reassuring. It’s clear that the world has been anticipating the return of a U.S. president who can, at the very least, stay fully engaged during important discussions. Already, the impact of President Trump’s leadership is being felt. 41 days before he is set to be inaugurated, he has restored respect for our country on the world stage. This comes in stark contrast to the weak-kneed leadership Americans have been forced to endure under the Harris-Biden administration over the last four years. From their disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to Iran and its proxies' attacks against Israel, we’ve seen what happens when we have leaders in the White House whose foreign policy strategy is to appease our adversaries and undermine our allies. Thankfully, on November 5th, the voters said enough is enough. The path forward under President Trump is quite clear. He will usher in a new era of peace through strength, and I am eager to hit the ground running on day one to enact his America First agenda. I congratulate President Trump on a successful trip to Paris, and I look forward to watching him restore our country’s dominance on the world stage.”
