I didn't say I wasn't worried. But he's their big cheese, not ours. And
I don't think "standing up to him" has any useful meaning. Persuasion
and education might do better.

If he's brought up short enough times, we may hope he learns to
communicate better as he learns that talking to an audience of hayseeds
in Florida includes talking to the rest of the world. The hayseeds may
have known that on Sweden "last night" he was referring to a Fox News
documentary, but the rest of us have never heard of Fox News and even
if we had wouldn't have seen the programme.
