How divisive will Trump be when he speaks in Davos?

The news that US President Donald Trump will attend the 2018 World Economic Forum in Davos and deliver a keynote speech there on Friday has shocked many and even sparked protests in several Swiss cities.

Trump's populist and nationalist rhetoric during his presidential campaign and in his first year in office is widely viewed as being the antithesis to the overwhelmingly globalist views at Davos. It's like having him speak at a Democratic National Convention.

White House officials explained on Tuesday that Trump's "America First" policy is not "America Alone" and he wants to tell the world that the United States is open for business and wants the world to invest in the US.
