        Trump Effect: Between Trump loving on Putin & getting in China's face to "put them on notice" Trump is totally in over his head.

        And Trump has put diplomatic relations in peril. He's probably trying to snag a good deal for one of his companies.

        Not saying he caused it, but he'll certainly try to exploit it for his own selfish business interests.

        Trump's got this taken care of: Deny climate change. Sink island under rising oceans. Declares political victory. Washes hands.

        When you have a weak President like Obama, everyone will take advantage. Another reason Trump won.
