Henry Kissinger On President-Elect Donald Trump



The Hill: Kissinger calls Trump a 'phenomenon that foreign countries haven't seen'

Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said in an interview Sunday that President-elect Donald Trump could go down in history as a "very considerable president."

"Donald Trump is a phenomenon that foreign countries haven't seen," Kissinger said on CBS's "Face The Nation."

"So it is a shocking experience to them that he came in to office. At the same time, extraordinary opportunity."
