And it’s in a weaker position in the Gulf and it’s in a weaker position internationally.”
Beddoes said Trump should be thought of not as a conventional American President – with a cabinet and advisors who speak their mind, debate and then come to agreed conclusions – but as a king surrounded by courtiers who vie to tell him what he wants to hear.
