I guess President Kenyatta is grateful for the behind-the-scenes help that the administration played in getting the five counts of crimes against humanity dropped in the International Criminal Court in the Hague.
I don't know if this qualifies as a win. That was pretty nasty business.
Probably not what you were referring to, though LTC (Join to see)

The improvement I see is in business cooperation, student exchanges and just the way that I am treated wherever I go in Japan as an American.
It helps that I speak Japanese, but where 20-years-ago I got stares on the subway and the silent treatment in bars, today I feel more welcome in a Tokyo bar or Osaka cafe than I do in much of the US.

Travel the world and say you like Donald Trump and it's not silence you will get, but ridicule.

Sgt Steven Thomas - Oh thank you so much for your incredible insight.
I think its rather because I tend to talk to educated people who follow world events, rather than nativists, isolationists, xenophobes and the like.

Our allies trust us less. Our (potential) enemies respect us less. Is that an improvement?
