Or is he being flexible and not unlike any other politician?
The bottom line is this: do you believe what comes out of his mouth from now on?

Major news meadia outlets in the U.S., such as CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, NYT, WP and LAT are overwhelmingly liberal in their editorial commentaries and day-to-day reporting.
They are basically mouth pieces for the Democratic Party, Hillary and liberal, or progressive agenda. Some also viciously attack GOP, Trump, and Conservatives.
It is said that people working in the news media are mostly Democrats, maybe as high as 85% by some accounts.
When it comes to reporting on matters regarding foreign countries, these media outlets are foremost American centric. In other words, they are, more often than not, biased.
BBC News reporters, on the other hand, are more objective on their reporting because they analyze American politics and American soceity as outsiders. They don’t have a personal stake on what comes out of an event such as the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
Read for yourself and see if you agree.
You will never read a headline like this on any American publication.
Will Trump be any differen? We will see.

Chinese wine-tasters scoop surprise win in France – http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-37601132
Definitely a ‘thunderbolt‘ event.
I was pleasantly surprised to see so many different wines being sold at supermarkets in Shanghai. There are few wine shops at areas frequented by foreigners too.
I am still taking a ‘wait and see’ attitude towards buying Chinese red and whites wines because I didn’t like what I have tasted so far.
Large areas dedicated for wine growing do not mean improvement in the quality of wines.
Five or ten years later may be a different story.

George Osborne, the U.K. finance minister, told BBC Friday: “The relationship with the United States is a very old one, very deep and operates on many layers.”
But, Obama, please don’t drag us into your war with Syria.
Go ahead, Obama, you can do it by yourself. Assad is no match to your carriers, destroyers and cruise missiles.
We’ll watch it on our TV.
Of course, good politicians don’t say what they really want to say. They lie all the time.
George Osborne is a fine politician.
