Will Country's Love Affair With President-elect Last
... surged to levels not seen since the Cold War during the Obama years, a majority of Russians — some 70% — now want better relations with the West. "What the Kremlin is after is the reaffirmation of respect from the United States and the Trump administration," said Vladimir Frolov, a foreign policy analyst and columnist with The Moscow Times. "They viewed the Obama administration as disrespectful.". Frolov said that, more than any policy differences, President Obama poisoned relations beyond repair when the American president denigrated Russia as "a regional power.". Trump says 'I have nothing to do with Russia.' That's not exactly true. Such statements, said Frolov, counter the Kremlin's image of Russia as a nation assuming its rightful place as a global power under Putin. While such statements give a Trump administration nowhere to go but up, Frolov warns any budding Putin-Trump partnership comes with limits given Russia's foreign policy ambitions. "I give them a year or a year ...

Will He Be Trump's Friend Or Foe
... leaders could not be more different. Where Trump is bellicose, Roberts is circumspect. Given various opportunities to comment on Trump's rhetoric or congressional Republicans' refusal to fill Scalia's seat throughout 2016, the chief justice demurred. Chief Justice John Roberts attends President Obama's 2016 State of the Union address with fellow justices. (Photo: Evan Vucci, AP). Ironically, Trump's victory saved Roberts' role as a powerful chief justice. With a conservative rather than a liberal replacing Scalia, Roberts will remain in the majority on most rulings, allowing him to decide who writes the opinions. Had Hillary Clinton won the White House, her nominee likely would have thrust Roberts into a conservative minority and empowered Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the leader of the court's liberal wing. Now Trump and Senate Republicans will deliver Roberts a fifth conservative justice. If the new president chooses a hard-line conservative such as Alabama's William Pryor, who serves on the U. S. Court of Appeals for the 11 th Circuit, it could push Roberts further toward the middle. And if ...
When Is Donald Trump's Presidential Inauguration At The White House And What Time Does It Begin? Everything You Need To Know
... for who they want to be president. Who hates Donald Trump and why? Celebrity critics of the president-elect. Americans vote for people called 'electors' in their state who are supporting the candidate they want to become president – this process is called the 'Electoral College'. The more people who live in a state, the more electors there are for that state. The candidate with the most electors wins all the state's electoral college votes and the first candidate to win enough states to get to 270 electoral votes is elected to that office. Mr Trump was declared officially the president-elect when the Texas votes were counted, pushing him over the 270-vote threshold. After the December 19 vote, Mr Trump finished with 304 electoral votes and his Democrat opponent Hillary Clinton got 227. Seven electors defied convention and went against the popular vote, refusing to vote for either candidate. Watch | Congress officially declares Donald Trump president. Eve of the ...

Barrow had come to Senegal last week at the urging of West African mediators, who feared for his safety amid the political crisis. He arrived at the embassy to cheers of joy from hundreds of Gambians who had gathered, with national flags, for a glimpse of the new president. “Our national flag will now fly high among the most democratic nations of the world,” Barrow said after the ceremony. Barrow was declared the winner of the Dec. 1 election and at first was congratulated by Jammeh in a phone call aired on state television.

One Habit Trump Says He Will Keep As President
... I have other things I could be doing. But I get very dishonest media, very dishonest press. And it's my only way that I can counteract," said the Republican president-elect. MORE FROM REUTERS. * Business euphoria over Trump gives way to caution, confusion. A New York businessman and former reality TV star, Trump often used Twitter during the campaign to communicate his views, including his sometimes scathing opinions of rivals. Since winning the November election he has delivered a steady stream of tweets - often focused on countering critics. He has had a contentious relationship with some prominent U. S. news organization that he refers to derisively as the "mainstream media," banning some news outlets during the presidential campaign and publicly criticizing individual reporters. Trump's team had discussed moving news conferences out of the small West Wing briefing room to the Old Executive Office Building, which is part of the White House complex, incoming White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus said Sunday on ABC. "The press went crazy, so I said, 'Let's not move it.' But some people in the press will not ...
