The AP reports that, on Sunday, President Donald Trump ordered the Pentagon to scale back annual military exercises with South Korea because, he said in a Truth Social post, South Korea refused to help with “denuclearization” efforts against Iran. Joe blasts the move, calling it part of a pattern of the president’s “jagged” and “ad hoc” foreign policy.
