America First, as we said, does not mean America alone. We will continue our strong alliances and partnerships.
We will see the world for what it is, be honest with ourselves and the American people, follow the facts where they lead us, and hold ourselves and others accountable.
The President campaigned on the phrase America First, and that characterizes our foreign policy.
Our budget will never determine our ability to be effective, our people will.
