Some foreign leaders treat Donald Trump as a ‘shadow president’ | DW News

From DW News.

In the four years since he left the White House, Donald Trump has remained a force in domestic and international politics. His unique status as a former – and possibly future – president, and his influence over the Republican Party, have made him a powerful actor behind the scenes. So much so that it’s now become customary for some foreign leaders to have three meetings when they visit the United States – one with Biden, another with Harris, and a third meeting with Donald Trump. Veteran US journalist Bob Woodward has described this as a "shadow presidency". His latest book "War" comes out today. One striking revelation comes from a former Trump aide, who allegedly told Woodward that Donald Trump has spoken to Russia’s Vladimir Putin as many as seven times since he left the White House. The Trump campaign denies the allegations.
