Just going to throw this out, but Mexico is one of many nations that the USA has large trade deficits with. Some say that other leaders fear that Trump would want fairer trade deals, ones in in which both countries benefit. Some say that other world leaders may also fear Trump’s strength. Obama’s one of the kindest presidents in history. But many voters feel that the USA should not have to walk on egg shells while other nations become emboldened and increasingly provocative. Basically, Trump wouldn’t take any mess from them.

I dunno about you but I have liked Obama's foreign policy approach, in general. The "Empire" approach I think feels dated, "We are better than you." Is not only false, but also quite insensitive and anything but smart politics.
There are some things that need changing in the foreign policy department, but I fail to see how someone like Trump could possibly do anything but to damage relationships and even cause further damage with conflictive nations. The guy smells like WWIII
