Donald Trump’s Guide to the World
He thinks Russians are easy to make deals with. He thinks Germany is a powerful, wealthy nation. He thinks Mexico will most certainly pay to build that border wall. A running theme in his comments is that the United States is 1) getting out-negotiated and 2) is doing too much in the world and should take a step back.
China: 'Very smart'
"China is taking oil out of Iraq like nobody would believe. What did we do? We spent $2 trillion and all those lives and wounded warriors. China is taking tremendous amounts of oil out of Iraq," he told "Meet The Press" on Aug. 16.
Russia and Vladimir Putin: Easy to deal with
"He’s got a tremendous popularity in Russia, they love what he’s doing, they love what he represents. I was over in Moscow two years ago and I will tell you — you can get along with those people and get along with them well. You can make deals with those people. Obama can't," Trump told Fox News' Bill O'Reilly on "The O'Reilly Factor" on June 16.
Ukraine and Crimea: Not our problem
"I don't like what's happening with Ukraine. But that's really a problem that affects Europe a lot more than it affects us. And they should be leading some of this charge," he told "Meet The Press" on Aug. 16.

The Donald has "insightful" assessments of Mexico (the new China), Afghanistan (tremendous minerals), Iranians (great negotiators, cause a nuclear holocaust), etc. A great international thinker he is not.
