Linsey, what a night. I think the most important thing i take away from it was the backdrop, the use of the white house as a political prop in a way no president could have imagined. Donald trump doing it boldly and defiantly and it looked great.

This period is marked by i would say mostly difficult negative news with one good news at the very end of this period of six months which is the announcement of the agreement between the European Union 20 years in the making. Whether the agreement will be implemented remains obviously a question mark. There will be detailed negotiations now at the different elements of the agreement.
