Trump Joins the War Party: MAGA’s Foreign Policy Flip

Over the past six months, Donald Trump has abandoned the anti-war, anti-establishment rhetoric that once defined the MAGA movement.

In this episode, Greg Stoker breaks down how Trump’s foreign policy now mirrors the bipartisan war machine he once opposed.

From backing new sanctions on Russia and threatening U.S. allies, to echoing neoconservative talking points on NATO and Ukraine, Trump’s transformation is nearly complete.

This episode examines how MAGA’s shift signals a broader erosion of populist resistance to U.S. empire, with significant implications for global stability.

👉 What happened to “America First”?
👉 Why is Trump supporting secondary sanctions on U.S. allies?
👉 How does Ukraine connect to looming U.S. escalations in Iran and Lebanon?

We also examine how the military-industrial complex benefits regardless of who is in office, and why the forever war persists under a different salesman.
