"President Trump was right in taking a tougher approach to China," Blinken told senators Tuesday during his confirmation hearing, as the New York Post reported. "I disagree very much with the way that he went about it in a number of areas, but the basic principle was the right one, and I think that's actually helpful to our foreign policy."
Blinken added more agreement with outgoing Secretary of State Mike Pompeo with regard to the Chinese government's treatment of Uighur Muslims as "genocide."
Also, Blinken said "there's been a strong and long bipartisan commitment to Taiwan," and his diplomatic approach will continue with "the commitment to Taiwan" as "something that we hold to very strongly."

Asked at his confirmation hearing by Senator Ted Cruz if the United States will continue its stance on Jerusalem and maintain its embassy, Blinken said without hesitation, "Yes and yes."
Trump didn't do anything

LIPO I guess. I’m sure siding with Palestine will preserve the various ME peace treaties that Trump brokered.
Again, LIPO
Now things change all the time and when Joe gets his Iranians in there all bets are off
