It is highly unusual for foreign diplomats and political leaders to express concern, even privately, about candidates in the midst of a U.S. presidential campaign. Yet, senior leaders in several European countries have made public comments criticizing Trump’s positions and some have openly endorsed Hillary Clinton. Beside being seen meddling in U.S. domestic politics, the same people should be mindful that they will have to work with whoever wins. Recent history is replete with examples where the world's opinion of a US presidential candidate backfired against those same critics.
