Trumps Visit in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Recently, President Trump visited Riyadh,Saudi Arabia to speak on issues such as terrorism. Surprisingly, Trumps tone on the Muslim faith was a lot different, compared to, when he was campaigning and how Islam is the root of all destruction. He quotes from the meeting " I stand before you as the representative of the American People to deliver a message of friendship and hope and love. Our vision is one of peace, prosperity in this region and all through the world". A significant difference of what was said through out his campaign. As Trump visit More Middle East countries--countries where their main religion is Islam--will it change his prospective and give him greater knowledge of the Muslim population? Knowledge that will be essential to eliminate ignorance and ethnocentrism as he develops Foreign Affairs as President of the United States.

Abroad, President Trump's reality collides with candidate Trump's words
