“The United Nations is not a friend of democracy,” said Trump at the American Israel Political Affairs Committee on Monday. He continued by saying this about the UN, “It’s not a friend to freedom. It’s not a friend even to the United States of America, where as all know, it has its home. And it surely isn’t a friend to Israel.”
However, Trump used to sing a very different tune years ago regarding the United Nations. He was, in his own words, a “big fan” of the U.N. Testifying in the Senate, in 2005, Trump spoke as an expert commercial developer, to a subcommittee looking into the enormous cost of renovating the U.N. headquarters in New York.
A change in his view has been a repeated issue with Trump during this presidential campaign, but his people call these contradictions as “evolving” on the issues. It seems that the blinders have come off for Trump regarding the United Nations – or at least now that his main purpose of forwarding his businesses is taking a backseat to his political aspirations he is truly coming out with how he really feels.
Reports of U.N. schools housing Hamas rockets sure do give his statement clear credence.

He is right the UN has to have a coalition to take out ISIS we can’t do it alone. Why should we be the only country it should be every country that ISIS threatens.
get america OUT of the united nastions
The UN is worthless. Get them out of NY ! Quit giving them money !
Un does nothing to help people need to move to another country
We need nato
The UN does nothing for freedom
We should drop out of the U.N. We pay more to the un-organization than all other countries combined
We need to see a chart regarding the money provided by all members of the U.N
Agree with Trump 100o/o
Sharon, I would rather them here, but no diplomatic immunity.. also, what are they doing? Nothing.
I believe, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
If they go abroad, we will lose our know about who they see and alliances made. It will become more corrupt
