World leaders not named Putin would be thrilled to negotiate with an adult again.

Seriously, though. He doesn't have a prayer. No one wants to be shouted at all the time, and he shouts his speeches.

Can he construct a complete, cogent sentence? That ought to be good enough.

You'd think.
BUT IT WON'T BE ENOUGH, I TELL YA! PEOPLE WILL GET TIRED OF SOMEONE PRETENDING TO BE FIRED UP ALL THE TIME BECAUSE THEY CAN'T STAND TO HAVE TO LISTEN TO THAT TYPE OF SPEECH PERPETUALLY, PARTICULARLY DURING A CAMPAIGN!
Know what I mean?

If after 4 years of Trump Dems are making their choice based on speech patterns then we are doomed. We'll see how the platforms stack up. Still plenty of candidates to come.

It's not just speech patterns. The guy is almost as good as Clinton (Bill) working the crowd, one-on-one, but is worse than Rick Perry on TV. Image matters.

1) What do you think they think of our current President?
2) Does that affect what you think of the performance of our current President?

1. They realize that Trump is not full of empty rhetoric (shit) when he speaks, he follows thru. For instance getting NATO countries to pitch in more $$$$ (they weren’t paying a fair share. He is serious about negotiating fairer trade with China;(who wouldn’t be dissatisfied with losing half a trillion $ every year( has to stop).
2. Not so much.
If foreign leaders don’t particularly like a tough stance from Trump then I can’t help that. We come first, no apologies.
Thanks for the questions.
