A Positive Sign

I think you’ll find this interesting. Politico, which is no fan of the President, reports the foreign diplomatic corps in Washington, DC, operates under the assumption Trump will be reelected. Of the foreign diplomats they contacted:
None who talked to POLITICO were willing to say that Trump will lose. Instead, they pointed to three key advantages for Trump: He’s the incumbent, the U.S. economy is strong and the Democrats have no definitive front-runner to challenge him.
If that’s what they’re telling their governments, it will help the President in negotiations. Fearing the need to live with his rambunctious style for another 4 years will cause them to curry favor instead of dragging their feet until the election.
