It's actually a simple journalistic exercise that occurs towards the end of a US president's first (and possibly last) term: observers assess the past four years.
You take stock of what was good, what was bad?
In the case of Donald Trump, it is not that easy.
What are the political successes that the 45th US President has to show?
Which promises has he implemented domestically, what has he done internationally?
Eight billion host Juan Moreno asks SPIEGEL colleagues about Trump's achievements.
Among other things, Moreno speaks with Mathieu von Rohr, Head of Foreign Affairs.
"That is really not an easy question," says von Rohr.
"I would find it easier to talk about the omissions."
Von Rohr shows why Donald Trump's presidency was on the whole a disaster, but one or the other positive can be found with difficulty.
If you try hard enough.
