Diplomatic Manoeuvres, Assassination Schemes and a Comedy Book: Trump's Latest

The closer we get to the US presidential elections, the more revelations media tries to uncover for the public; some in the hopes that it supports Donald Trump's efforts for reelection, while others try to make points against him so it boosts his rival's chances.

Not only that "tell-all" books are hailing every other week, trying to uncover more secrets about the US local and international politics, even the popular TV show host and comedian Conan O'Brien have been rumored to prepare a book on the US President. 

Lately, Trump's former personal attorney Michale Cohen has released a book about the years he worked with Trump and what was going on at the white house at that time. 

Additionally, the US president has recently made on-air statements that echo revelations that were highlighted in the book "Fear," written by the American investigative journalist Bob Woodward, about Trump's preference for the final solution to the Syrian crisis. 

Speaking to Fox & Friends a few days ago, Trump explained that he had supported a 2018 suggestion of assassinating the Syrian President Bashar Assad, which the then-Defense Secretary James Mattis wasn't on board with. This statement echos Woodward's claims that Trump "had ordered the Pentagon to assassinate the Syrian president after a chemical attack on civilians in April 2017."

Even more controversially was a tweet by an Israeli journalist, who was in DC last Tuesday for the signing of the "Abraham Accords" between Israel and two GCC states. In her tweet, Haaretz' correspondent talked about the Bahraini delegation's efforts to know what to expect in the agreement they arrived at DC to sign with Israel, without receiving proper answers, suggesting that the Trump administration might not have clarified such details to the diplomats, who accompanied the Bahraini foreign minister for the signing.

Translation: "Viewed at the hotel now: Members of the Bahraini delegation (some of whom live here with us) are trying to ask an American representative for information about what the physical copy their foreign minister will sign, includes exactly. Let’s just say it doesn’t seem like all details are locked."

Landau's tweet reminded social media users of anther moment that was promoted as a diplomatic achievement for Trump, in which he announced an agreement between Serbia and Kosovo and added that Serbia "has agreed to move its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem by July," during which the Serbian President froze in shock and tried to skip through the documents in front of him, in what seemed a surprising detail he might not have known prior to that moment."

Media commentators have been referring to these recent events; suggesting that Trump's diplomatic approaches are similar to those of New York real estate businessmen, suggesting that "his background mastering business maneuvers might have been showing in his management of political and international cases."

Translation: "Huge, Trump uses the real estate transaction methods he used in New York years ago.  He made a lot of money and always knocked it in front of him. In this case it is possible that both sides came out satisfied and only when they land in their countries, will they feel differently."
