"Republican strategist" says Trump's foreign trip is his "time to shine." [View all]

A Republican strategist close to the White House said Trump needed a strong trip to help put the past tumultuous 10 days behind him.

“If the White House is looking for this international trip to turn the page, then it really needs to come off well without any balls dropped or serious mistakes," said the strategist, who requested anonymity.

"This is their time to shine, to show Americans and the world that the White House isn’t becoming a circus of errors.”

Some doubt whether Trump, a businessman-turned politician who never held elective office before becoming president in January, is ready for a smooth presidential debut abroad.
