GOP lawmaker rips Biden's 'weak' foreign policy record in preview of RNC speeches: 'Global laughingstock'

MILWAUKEE – GOP Congressman Darrell Issa previewed what he expects to see in the foreign policy speeches on Wednesday night at the GOP convention and outlined what he believes a second Trump term will mean for the world.

"When I think about Trump foreign policy, Russia didn't gain an inch during his tenure, having taken Crimea under his predecessor, Obama," Issa, who sits on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told Fox News Digital on Wednesday before Republicans took the stage in Milwaukee to talk foreign policy.

"I think about the fact that China did not aggressively go after Taiwan the way they are today, or the Philippines, where they're literally stealing fish out of the water by force.

"Make America Strong Once Again" is the theme of the third day of the convention, where speakers will outline Trump’s foreign policy agenda and argue against Biden’s record.
