Whoever managed to convince Trump to attend #HowdyModi, is a super intelligent diplomat! Pakistan was planning to gather 10k protestors there, now secret service will take care of them ?

Narendra Modi and Donald Trump coming together is certainly a noteworthy moment in global politics. While the event is being viewed as a positive step forward by many, it does have a negative push back too. What remains to be seen are the decisions made and the implications they set in motion.
