U.S. President Donald Trump took to the podium today at the U.N. General Assembly in New York to deliver his first speech before the body of global leaders. The address — somewhat reminiscent in tone to his inauguration speech in January — was Trump's message to the world on what U.S. foreign policy should be under his doctrine of "America First." The first few months of Trump's presidency had been filled with whispers, rumors and gossip that Trump would radically alter the relationship of the United States with global institutions and its allies. There were even reports that executive orders had been drafted to freeze negotiations on multilateral treaties and cut U.S. funding for international organizations. But those orders never came to pass. The United States has remained, albeit at times reluctantly , true to its global commitments.
