Trump bashes globalism at UN, claims US now 'stronger, richer'

US President Donald Trump made himself a target for criticism by attacking globalism and touting his America First foreign policy and trade stance in a speech to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday.

"We reject the ideology of globalism, and we embrace the doctrine of patriotism," Trump said, highlighting achievements that he said have made the United States a "stronger, safer and a richer country" than before.

Trump said the US is taking a "hard look" at its foreign assistance to countries that don't have American interests "at heart".
