Is anyone surprised?
"White House communications director Mike Dubke told staffers in a meeting last week that President Donald Trump has no foreign policy doctrine, Politico reported on Monday.
The meeting occurred Tuesday and more than 30 White House staffers were present. Dubke and his deputy, Jessica Ditto, pitched a "rebranding" of Trump's first 100 days in office, which have been dominated by controversy and a lack of legislative achievement, according to the Politico report.
Dubke told aides at the meeting that it would be difficult to come up with a messaging strategy for Trump's foreign policy because, as aides told Politico, the communications director said "there is no Trump doctrine," much to the shock of some in the room. One source present in the meeting told the news organization that those on the campaign felt there was a pretty clear Trump doctrine of "America First."
