What is the writer's opinion of Trump's diplomatic abilities? How does the writer believe Trump's opponents use his attitude to their advantage?
Trump is a bully and diplomacy is clearly not his strength. He is used to get anything he wants by subduing his opponents, and he is discovering the hard way that his methods do not work when it comes to international politics. He does not understand that a drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of vinegar, so he goes out of control and tweets his anger whenever things don't go his way. His childish attitude is a clear advantage for his opponents, who will often use it to get under his skin. I expect the sales of his book "The art of the deal" to plummet, for a negotiator who cannot control his emotions is doomed to fail.
