Trump and the UN

Former President Trump has said: “I have long felt the United Nations is an underperformer but has tremendous potential.”

He has decried the large contributions the U.S. makes to the U.N. as a bad deal. He lamented “the utter weakness and incompetence of the United Nations. The United Nations is not a friend of democracy; it’s not a friend to freedom; it’s not a friend even to the United States of America, where, as you know, it has its home; and it surely is not a friend to Israel.”
