Yep. Saw an interview with the president of Mexico where he said he didn't care who got elected in 2020 because the rest of the world was well aware that the american people and the politicians they elect had very little to do with american foreign policy
I kinda think Trump is the rare exception to our consensus on foreign policy. He doesn't care about any of the "inside baseball" perspectives in Washington. For him, politics is 100% spectacle -- he doesn't have hard beliefs about foreign policy in the way that our typical politicians do. I could see him trying to end the war just so he could say "I succeeded where Joe couldn't!"
