Washington Post: “A curious rhetorical and ideological struggle has been playing out on Capitol Hill and in the White House in recent weeks, as the Trump administration has sought to apply Reagan’s ‘peace through strength’ mantra to the president’s unprecedented break with traditional U.S. allies and embrace of longtime adversary Russia.”

“Critics, including GOP centrists, have worried about the corruption of a long-held foreign policy doctrine while Democrats increasingly find themselves waxing nostalgic for a Republican president from the 1980s.”
