pivot at some point from donald trump the campaigner who campaigned on some pretty inflammatory rhetoric to donald trump the leader. i think from what i m hearing from colleagues ived in the transition, there is some reception from the trump team to, for example, take on russia as not necessarily being an ally. i think that you re going to see after january 20th, potentially a shift here. the tweeting thing doesn t help. we don t need an unfiltered trump speaking directly to us. i just think these things don t help anyone, and you would urge him to rethink that. secondly, there s a larger point here. malcolm and i have talked about this. context is key. take trump and the united states out of this. when you look at countries like china and russia, they ve had 100 year plans. four eight years of trump is a speed bump in the road to where they want to be. china has been clear. they want taiwan,nd the south
