    In his second term, and in particular over the past two weeks, President Donald Trump has unleashed on friend and foe alike a diplomatic style that jettisons all the norms of traditional diplomacy – dialogue, bargaining, trust-building, and patience – in favor of commands, threats, and shows of force. Our diplomacy correspondent takes a look. Also: today’s stories, including two stories that look at the tenth anniversary of the Supreme Court decision Obergefell v. Hodges, which legalized same-sex marriage; an essay from our Tel Aviv correspondent on watching Iran fire missiles on Israel while visiting New Zealand, her extended family’s Holocaust refuge; and our film critic’s review of “F1.” Join the Monitor's Christa Case Bryant for today's news.
