The tweeting and some of the explosive conversations can hurt the third and can have an impact on the second, but, in the end, what we really should focus on is the policies.

Others, we have to wait and see.” PeopleLongRunningGuyWaitingPresidentHurtFocusPolicyQuietImmigrationPerceiveDiplomacy Author:James Franklin Jeffrey
