He'll be all puffed up and full of himself because the foreign leaders he'll be visiting know that they have to flatter him and fawn over him in order to get him to cooperate with them and not do something insane or dangerous (like withdraw from NATO). He'll return to the US in triumph (or thinking he's triumphant); the bar has been set so low that if any faux pas he commits doesn't cause a major international incident, the trip will be considered a success. He brings his bubble with him. He's got all his sycophants and enablers along on the trip; his hosts will be sucking up to him; and he'll think everything is fine.
