President Obama still has a couple of months in office.
he might use (that time) to launch peace talks, or negotiate an arms reduction, or assist with a crisis.
But Donald Trump's team is issuing a warning:
KEEP YOUR HANDS INSIDE THE COUNTRY
Before Donald Trump won the presidency, domestic foreign policy circles hummed with talk that an outgoing President Barack Obama could take a last stab at peace talks between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
There was also a strong expectation that Obama would push hard for Congress to approve the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal.
But now that they're on the verge of power, Trump aides say Obama shouldn't even think about taking such steps.
It's hard to find a fan of the TPP these days, but..would negotiating peace be such a bad thing?
Is Donald Trump against peace?
Actually, it's impossible to say what Trump is against..Or what he's for.
Because with the exception of a few things he's vowed to bomb the $#!^ out of, there really isn't much to know about Donald Trump's foreign policy.
