Members of Council on Foreign Relations in past 3 presidential administrations
Council on Foreign Relations members have dominated past administrations.
Republican or Democrat hasn’t made much actual difference, as past administrations were all filled with CFR members. There was often mostly an illusion of choice for the voters between the two parties. There have been candidates, such as Congressman Ron Paul (Republican / Libertarian), who have exposed the goals of the globalist agenda. The idea of America First and distrust of globalism has been gaining traction.

The CFR had only had one candidate, Hillary Clinton, in this election. Hillary Clinton’s administration would have been as equally filled with CFR members as the prior Presidents’.
