QOTD: "This afternoon Donald Trump gave a serious foreign policy speech, and spent a good part of it reminding Americans about Obama’s (and Hillary’s) abject international failures. Frankly, I was impressed. Of course, highlighting his determination to reverse the damage of the Obama years was the message I recommended to the Cruz campaign months ago. Instead, Cruz decided to get in the gutter with Trump, and only cheapened himself in the process.

I suppose it’s fair to say this change of tone means Trump is looking beyond the convention to a battle royale with Hillary Clinton in the fall.

To watch the speech in its entirety (about an hour), have a look here." --Dan Friedman
