- Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) delivers a keynote address at the Quincy Institute's "A Foreign Policy for the Middle Class: Realism & Restraint Amid Global Conflict" conference in Washington D.C.
JD Vance challenges the conventional wisdom in foreign policy and military operations, emphasizing the need to prioritize the American middle class's interests. He argues that the US should build alliances with countries that benefit its own interests, rather than overcommitting to dependent client states. Vance stresses the importance of a strong economy at home to inform and execute a foreign policy that benefits the middle class.
The conference was hosted at the Hart Senate Office building on Thursday, May 23 from 10:00am - 2:30pm ET.

Is it me, or is this the first time someone is finally framing the questions properly??? 👊 Damn, this is fire!
He seems to understand foreign policy better than most political leades I have heard.
Yeah, he understands foreign policy like the rest of the Establishment (both Democrat and Republican). Never criticize Israel and stay silent as they genocide the Palestinian people.
this is sickening beyond belief. what gaza war has to do with christianity . ukraine is ally fighting by themselves unlike many other us allies. this is lesson for everybody . ukraine could have fallen poeacefully to russia and let us deal with russian german china alliance. now us is trying to use philippines and finland. ukraine disabled veteran gets 20$ a month of allowance. that what you get from us alliance and also migrants from glibal south which is also propagated in ukraine
what he is saying stopping funding conflict means leaving ukraine without army when russia is on offensive and turning it into afghanistan he should be tried in nuremberg also for making ukrainian children responsible for us border
See , this is how EVERYTHING that the government does should be explained to the American people.
Open and ideas that they have !!
As a Trump fan I actually never heard of this guy before today, but man he is a great speaker. I’m glad Trump made a solid choice, the dems are already trying to dig up every spec of dirt about this guy, as they would for anyone trump would pick, but listening to him talk and hearing his opinions I can tell he wants what is good for America and its economy. I pray to god that American people get what they need and Trump wins the election.
Wait till the start whispering in his ear ! He is confused on EVERYsubject he spoke of there ! Putty in their hands !
Agreed
He seems like a good guy with some solid views. Don’t agree with his view on the Israel-Hamas conflict, but you can’t win em all.
@JohnPetrucci251 His views are absurd or misyongist. He has little clue of the realities on the ground ! He is confused and all over the place geo politically ! He is telling straight up lies about hiw Christians are treated in Israel ! Horrible dangerous wee coward !
Most hard working Americans would like this guy. Breathe of fresh air unlike other politicians.
Im so impressed by this guy! Wow. I feel hope for you American.
OK, he seems like a smart guy.
trying to implement realist foreign policy while taking caring christian and middle class.
American foreign policy for the last 60 years has failed almost every time. Why does the US keep making the same mistakes over and over again? Ukraine is the perfect example. Like all the other conflicts US has supported, it will only end when US stops supporting it.
Don’t agree with his belligerence towards China and support for Israel but most of what he says make a lot of sense.
If you read his autobiography, Hillbilly Elegy, it’s due to the “Opium War 2.0” (read: Fentanyl epidemic) 💊
Snap. I agreed with most apart from those two - the Israeli argument still doesn’t make sense… he mentions because Americans like Jesus … aren’t the Israeli people Jewish who don’t believe Jesus existed? Help me to understand lol
Thankyou
Thank you Republicans for Making American Common Sense Common Again. Please continue to Make America Makes Sense Again. JOHN FURY
This should be shared. Amazing foreign policy stance. 1000% agree!
Thanks for this!
Don't you think that the government should always be open to the American people about things like this ? This is a perfect example of how it used to be when I was young !!
Not on board with the frankly disturbing rationale that Israel is worthy of our involvement due to theologically historic geography. Vance's OTHER reasons can at least be looked at in some quantifiable manner.
Right with you on that
AIPAC does its magic.
It just means commonly shared cultural values (read: Judeo-Christian heritage), which would constitute a qualitative category of reasoning.

Brilliant conference congratulations.
Wow! A poltician who can actually think and articulate - very strange for me as this is nearly totally absent in the UK (Farage aside) where the calibre is very low and verging on the moronic. Particularly impressive is Vance's assessment of Israel and the Middle East. I am just back from Israel where I met with Christians terrified that Israel will one day vanish, which will leave them at the mercy of the Jihadis. Many of these Christians, particularly the Maronites in the North are volunteering to serve in the IDF, despite huge pressure and persecution from their Arab Muslim neighbours. These people of course have zero coverage in our Islamophile, grievance-morality based and ultra-leftist media.
Hasbara. Israel is committing genocide
Talking about ancient Christian communities, Vance doesn't seem to be aware of Israeli pressure on these people, including in Gaza where the world's 3rd oldest church stands - now heavily damaged by bombing.
Common sense...finally. Love JD.
Sen. Vance- What about people that live under military occupation? Do they have the right to resist with violence their occupier?
Glenn Greenwald brought me here via Jimmy Dore
Yes he seems to understand more than most politicians. A new generation.
Brilliant!
JD Vance is not wearing rose colored glasses, in the tradition of William S Buckley. He speaks the logical truth without blinders.
On point.
👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏☮️🙏🙏Trump + Vance
This makes sense
Thanks for talking Common Sense 👍
I know I might be a racist and bigot, but holy crap do I miss listening to intelligent and coherent politicians who know English and can talk without a teleprompter.
We must have term limits in both Congress and Senate! It’s getting to the point that the right or left, or the liberal or the conservative doesn’t matter. The only thing matters is the critical thinking and common sense!
I'm a free-trader, but he brings up an excellent point about promoting China's growth at the expense of the United States.
Read articles 8 and 9 of the constitution, free trader.
No war with Iran
From a german point of view...He is right...hope republicans going to be elected this time! Thanks for sharing
China is already the largest economy using Purchasing Power Parity, and Russia is now larger than Germany. Both our fault, true, but also not necessarily a problem.
China isn't just larger it's 50% larger than the US. It's already 1.5x our size and growing as fast as ever. They already are leading in about half of the most critical technologies and right behind us in the rest. As far as industrial economy goes, they already are #1, in fact they have more industrial output than the next 9 countries combined. It's not called the workshop of the world for nothing. JD Vance is a toolbag.
@CaseyC-bg4bb okay. thank you for your high level "expertise." I'm sure you need to get back to your prestigious job at Wendys now.
The US only accounts for 17% of China's exports which is 2.7% of China's GDP. You have to give some credit to the Chinese for actually building a country, unlike India, a country with a similar population.
@@user-dy9jq4lc5yjust like the Chinese Indian people are very nice in general.
We need to get JD,Vance into the White House, and Trump is the vehicle to get him there. Trump knows that of course.. he is smarter than I thought..
The German Blue Conservatives a looking forward for Trump/Vance !
Das glaube ich nicht !!
I agree with much except for Israel. Like all the wars we have fought in the midle east we need to ask questions about the nation, the reason to fight, and more.
Just in search of new slogans .. same old neocon mentality
It is better than what we have, but still not good enough.
@@andyjones1982 Actually it's worse. Don't be fooled by this guy. He is dangerous. Just look at who funds him.
Its sad to see the huge ignorance of this two replies and the coment of metju30... you guys have zero understanding of what Mr. Vance said... Go and study political theory and then you will probably understand what this Senator is saying... Making coments out of ignorance is very sad
@@MXForum-Veritas oh, really? Please enlighten us professor, or are you only capable of insults, how do you know what I study? .. oh yes, u r from USA u know everything .. tell us what will he do based on this speech? Leave Irak, Syria, stop providing means of genocide in Palestine end provoking China, stop using USD as tool of extortion, give up veto power in IMF, Word Bank, UN? .. anything meaningful for NON-usa people?
Blah blah blah …
Words words words …
Platitudes and bromides …
And Americans fall for it … every single time
Yes you allowed and helped China became so big.
Does this man, who is so intelligent, know the history of Israel and Palestine? Please let him read and learn from some new voices.
We cannot turn our eyes from the genocide and illegality of what is happening there,
With all due respect sir…I’m a Catholic. If you say in Israel (or in a Jewish community in the US…) that “Jesuschrist, our Lord and Savior, was born, raised and killed in Israel”, most probably and in the best case scenario your bodyguards will need to take action to protect you… And that even without putting any special weight in the part “killed”…. So of course I’m against Islamic terrorism of any kind, but Israel has no clean hands on this. A two state solution would be the most realistic approach in my humble opinion. About all the rest I agree with you
There are Christians in UKraine as well.Dont give up on UKraine.
The place where Jesus was born was called Bethleem and it is located in Palestine, not in Israel. Considering this guy wants to conduct de foreign policy of the USA, should he not know the geografical difference between Israel and Palestine ?
RFK jr 1000% 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
FREE PALESTINE
Yes!
Appreciate contact
I don’t he is belligerent to China, just more realistic.
Amen, they could never have developed
As a Canadain I think Donald Trump has picked a wonderful running mate that will bring prosperity to the American people and the US.
Good speech. I think he is wrong about some things, like overlooking the problems within Israel and the need for Ukraine and the west to win against Russia. But overall he did a good job articulating coherent ideas. America will be stronger abroad if we are stronger at home, and he calls out companies like Apple for giving good American technology to China. He also largely avoided the tired trope of pointing fingers at "liberals" and "Democrats"--meaning he made a stronger case for the ideas themselves rather the politics. I might vote for this guy if he was running for president.
He says Israel has more merit than Ukraine because of a religious argument. Even though Ukraine is Christian. He says China surpasding us economically will lead to war, and I agree. But Russia is actually perpetrating the war we don't want. So we better value Ukraine as much as Israel. And he says you have to be as capable as America or forget you. Doesnt sound like the only criteria for our support. His words are full of good ideas but full of classic Conservstive non-functional values that cancel out the good ideas. This is a very political talk. For one, a "foreign policy for the middle class" is a title to call Conservatives. At least he says you may or may not agree with me.
The appointment of Sen Vance as R VP nomination is a career ender for Mr Vance. If Trump loses in November he'll blame Vance. If he wins, he'll blame him down the track for all Trump's inevitable failures
Middle class is so important????
As a Jew I support what Vance said completely. (I'm Canadian and wish our leaders thought the same way). With a Trump administration promoting this Israeli/Sunni partnership in policing the region it would potentially solve a lot of problems Israel is having; like what to do with Jew-hating Palestinians who really don't want a state of their own and never did. If they were allowed to go to Sunni Arab countries it would solve the problems in Gaza and Judea/Samaria. It would also allow the Palestinians to follow their faith without the murderous applications that Iran and its proxies (like Hamas and Hazbollah) force upon them. Another thing: I've been researching the persecutions that Jihadi Muslims do to Christians. It's horrible. And Vance is right. Why hasn't this been acknowledged by the US govt and something done about it? For some examples of Christian persecution go to The Gatestone Institute and research Muslim persecution of Christians and other minorities. Finally, we need to support the Kurds and Persians living in Iran who are being persecuted by the Jihadi regime there. Maybe an Israeli/Sunni alliance could address this, too.
Wrong about israel
Vance, here is the reason why the USA should help Ukraine:
In Budapest memorandum USA PROMISED protection for Ukraine if they would give up their atomic weapons. Ukraine fulfilled their end of the deal, now it is the USA’s turn to do it. 🤦🏼♀️
Senator Vance, I'm a Christian, too. You must learn about the Israel/ Palestine history since WWII.
Also, the name Israel was originally given to Jacob. The name means to " strive with God, and overcome" (one's doubts, etc..) As St. Paul said, it is not Abraham's genes that make the cut, but rather being a child of God is spiritually determined, and so the Gentiles are grafted on to the tree of faith.
The promised land of the Old Testament is no longer mentioned in the New Testament, but the Kingdom of God is. That is what is important. John the Baptist, St. Paul, and Jesus all warned that not everyone of Israel, is Israel.
We must recognize that rhis Israel is ruled by Zionists, not people who put God 1st in their lives. Jesus: " "Not everyone who says they're a Jew is, but is of the synagogue of Satan." The genocide goes against every Christian ethic. We MUST NOT support it.
Why is he wearing eyeliner? What is he? Some kind of 🍓?
The last 40 years of foreign policy, like it or not, has made USA the most powerful and richest nation in the history of the world. No other empire has had military forces based in 100 countries and operates with impunity across space, air and oceans. USA foreign policy which at times has not always put America first has ensured that USA's allies have stayed loyal and potential enemies have been deterred. Foreign policy has not been ideal but tinker with the long-term benefits at your peril. By the way, I lived in Iraq from 2004 to 2012; the christian community was largely removed and many killed destroyed but to say a MILLION Christians were slaughtered is nonsense
No
To all 27 minutes and 24 seconds? Something tells me you don’t have an open mind…
Please meet with Palestinian Christian leaders....
They do not have freedom of speech like in Israel.
Christians for Palestine is like chickens for KFC.
The same demise of Christian population occurs in Israel as in other places he discusses. He needs to be called on that if he is sincere in his position.
He’s completely wrong on Ukraine!

南沙群岛以及周边水域自古以来就是中国领土的一部分! 强烈支持中国海警对南海水域的巡逻执法!!! 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳 👍👍👍👍👍👍
7) 君子坦荡荡, 小人长戚戚!
根本就不必在乎西方媒体的胡说八道! 西方有些媒体既弱智又心理变态！
Do NOT bother to pay any attention to the VILIFICATIONS of western media! Most of western major media are MANIPULATIVE and NOT trustworthy when they are reporting news about the countries with different ideologies!
Do NOT bother to pay any attention to THE VILIFICATIONS of western media! Those hypocrites of western media are CHEAP IDEOLOGICAL MORONS with NEGATIVE IQ!!! Most of the major western media are in fact the COMPLICIT of American hegemony! They are very good at 颠倒黑白、倒打一耙、贼喊捉贼!!!👎👎👎👎👎
8) IT IS THE U.S. GOVERNMENT which has been the FUNDAMENTAL CAUSES of many EVILNESSES in the contemporary world since the end of Cold War!👎👎👎👎👎
a) IT IS THE U.S. GOVERNMENT which on one hand always emphasizes its championing of the so called western values, and on the other hand is supporting Israel’s bombing of hospitals in Gaza right now!!!👎👎👎👎👎
b) IT IS THE U.S. GOVERNMENT which on one hand claims that the U.S. is the beacon of the world, and on the other hand MAKE FORTUNE by promoting hatreds between countries or between different ethnic groups and then selling weapons to countries or ethnic groups in the conflicts!!!👎👎👎👎👎
c) IT IS THE U.S. GOVERNMENT which on one hand claims its support of market economy and free trade, and on the other hand keeps WHIMSICALLY suppressing and containing Chinese high-tech companies!!!👎👎👎👎👎
9)以美国为首的西方政治蠢货们还在做着两百多年前的西方霸权梦! 可惜现如今不是1924年!! 而是2024年!!! 应该看清现实的是欧洲的那些政治蠢货们!!! 欧洲的这些政治蠢货们越跟在美国的后面充当美国霸权的走狗, 这些国家就会变得越无足轻重!!!👎👎👎👎👎

10)美国政府对中国的高科技产业的打压只会是搬起石头砸自己的脚!!!
All the efforts made by the U.S. government to suppress and contain the development of Chinese high-tech industries will be FUTILE!!!

那些唱衰中国经济的人们, 到头来只会是唱衰了他们本国的经济!!!
Those people who are betting the decline of Chinese economy WILL ULTIMATELY FACE THE REALITY OF ECONOMIC DECLINE OF THEIR OWN COUNTRY!!!
11) 世界的和平与繁荣发展需要的是多建设桥梁与铁路, 而不是在不同的种族, 宗教或不同的意识形态之间散播仇恨! 更不是以捍卫民主自由为名, 行战争贩子之实,以各种形式不断地卖武器, 大发战争的不义之财!!!
To achieve the LONG-TERM PEACE AND PROSPERITY, we need to BUILD MORE BRIDGES AND HIGH-SPEED RAILROADS around the world, NOT to spread hatreds between different ethnicities, religions or between different ideologies! Unfortunately, in the name of promoting democracy the U.S. government and its western allies are CONSTANTLY SELLING WEAPONS in various forms and SHAMELESSLY MAKE FORTUNES by sacrificing millions of innocent lives without any hesitation!
The period of thirty years after the collapse of the former Soviet Union is NOT an equilibrium state, BUT A TRANSITIONAL STATE, during which the world experienced constant violences and wars! This uni-polar world dominated by American hegemony will be replaced by an EPOCH-MAKING multi-polar world, and NO ONE can block this IRREVERSIBLE historical trend! Those western hypocrites who are refusing to recognize the reality will be DOOMED INTO THE DUST BIN OF HISTORY!!!

I think JD Vance needs to understand the smartphone market of today. America does NOT have a domestic competitive market cuz its dominated by brands like Google or IPhone and the single import Samsung Galaxy. China Capitalism works at providing services and has the most brands and the top sellers worldwide en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_phone_brands_by_country
