Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad expressed his belief that US president Donald Trump may not survive a second term.
"I think he might lose the second term, in which most of his policies would be thrown out just as he threw out the policies of the previous president, Barack Obama," he said.
In an interview with Thai public broadcaster ThaiPBS, Mahathir reiterated his statement that it would be difficult to work with someone like Trump.
