    This is why you dont put someone with no diplomacy experience as Secretary of State. But this may be why Trump wants to cut the state department funding and eliminate programs meant to prevent war while expanding the military.

      Eh, I don't know. I doubt a career foreign service officer could do much better. I think he's right that the last 20 years of diplomacy haven't done much to de-escalate the situation. If anything, things have gotten worse. I hope they consider other diplomatic options and don't immediately jump to military action. But it's clear that new thinking is required.
