As iron sharpens iron,
one person sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17)
Just read a review of Nikki Haley’s weekend townhall with CNN. She said some encouraging things.

A certain former President is intentionally omitted from any position on my list.
Note to our overseas participants: “We” below is a first person plural referring to your truly, fellow Americans, and military allies.

It seems like we entered Afghanistan uninvited to eliminate its use as a terrorist base, supported a non-Taliban government, and now are seeing slaughters and the return of leaders who will nurture terrorists.
Am I missing something?
Several of President-elect Donald Trump’s appointments are noted for their pro-Russian sympathies, and President-elect Trump has himself expresses a level of admiration for Vladimir Putin.
Should the U.S. work at creating a bond with Russia/Putin? Might we be more influential as friends than as adversaries?
Adding the discussion, you might comment on “should the US become less involved with NATO and the EU?”
We all know that Trump’s recording has hit the media, and that many supporters are changing or considering changing their voting intentions. Were you affected? If you were not going to vote for him and still are not, then you would be unaffected.
