America & the World

A foreign policy that defends American interests without abandoning American principles — and a border handled with competence and dignity.

The Problem

An immigration system built for the economy of the 1980s, producing chaos at the border, a 3-million-case asylum backlog, and 11 million people living in legal limbo. A Middle East policy that has never consistently applied the standards it demands of others. An Eastern Europe where American credibility against Russian aggression is being re-tested every week. And a China relationship oscillating between reckless confrontation and naïve accommodation. Allies doubt us. Adversaries test us.

The CGP Approach

Comprehensive immigration reform — secure, humane, and honest about the workforce the country actually needs. A Middle East policy that holds every party, including our closest ally, to the same rules of international law. Firm, sustained backing of Ukraine and every NATO commitment against an aggressor that chose this war. A China policy that competes where we must and cooperates where we can — without pretending the other option is free.

The Outcome

A border handled with competence and dignity, not performance cruelty. Humanitarian commitments honored without double standards. NATO stronger because America is steady. And a stable, competitive relationship with the country that will define this century alongside us.
