President Barack Obama on Friday expressed support for Donald Trump taking a fresh approach to America’s foreign policy, though he cautioned that the president-elect should do his homework first and reminded him that there’s only one commander in chief at a time.
“I think all of our foreign policy should be subject to fresh eyes,” Obama told reporters at his end-of-year news conference at the White House.
