The Vienna Convention is what the US uses constantly to keep their people insulated.

Normally, yes. But at this point I wouldn't be surprised to see the orange oaf ignore it and then try to muscle other countries into still respecting it when American diplomats are on the line.

Hell, I'm hoping that won't happen. But personally, I'd be a bit skittish about traveling to the US right now as a diplomat. I'd also be very skittish about traveling to the US as a non-diplomat.

OK, well, when that happens you let me know. This is honestly such an unlikely thing.
