GOP, Trump split on foreign policy

Notably absent from the House Republicans' foreign policy agenda unveiled Thursday are two phrases: "Donald Trump" and "America First."

The deliberate omission of the presumptive presidential nominee and his foreign policy slogan underscored the sharp divide between Trump and the party he is leading into the fall campaign.

Republican leaders presented the national security blueprint as a stark alternative to President Obama's leadership. But the proposal trains a bright spotlight on philosophical disagreements with Trump on foreign affairs.

House Republicans still cling to Ronald Reagan's muscular internationalism. Titled "A Better Way; Our Vision for a Confident America," the program prioritizes U.S. global leadership; strengthening alliances and using free trade to further Washington's influence abroad.

Trump's "America First" foreign policy, which is seen by some as isolationist, questions the value of commitments to traditional allies, is skeptical of free trade agreements, and envisages freeing money for domestic infrastructure spending by diminishing the projection of American power overseas.
