I have always admired Trump's "Political Skills" ...... I just don't like the way that he expresses himself or his policies. (I don't much care for his policy manual.)
I have often said that Trump is not an idiot. He is enjoying himself and he has the tacit support of at least 35-50 percent support amongst those who answer telephone calls from a Pollster/Researcher.
But, he is destroying the "Image" of America in the process.
People around the world don't want to hear the top world leader talk down to them in any fashion whatsoever.
Trump's voice commands are irritating every Non-American in the universe. They feel insulted and threatened.
Trump can't afford to think outside the political box any more.
America is "Morally Bankrupt" . Trump even promoted a person who had trampled International Law with the use of torture to head the CIA . An admitted torturer prancing the world stage as a "Negotiator" and "Facilitator" of Trump's "Mafia-Like" views towards the rest of the world.

Trump's only success has been "Political" but not on the International Stage where it really counts. In order to "Manage" the decline of North America and the rise of China, Trump needs more friends and not "Cohorts" - a "Coalition Of The Willing".
I thought that this was a pretty good interview ....
Trading blows?
An old Chinese fable has it that, when two tigers clash over primacy, a monkey may emerge as the winner by simply staying up the tree. As China and the United States declare a lull in their trade war, should other players wait until they sort out their differences or should they try to influence the outcome of this fight? To discuss this, Oksana is joined by Brahma Chellaney, professor of Strategic Studies at the New Delhi-based Center for Policy Research.
