I like the tune, the video is odd. It's 19 years old. Never heard it before.

The Diplomat: Season 4 - Netflix Series
The Diplomat: Season 4 | Official Trailer | Netflix
Netflix
Episode 1 starts with a motorcade carrying the American President and Vice-President (Hal) being diverted to Windsor Castle because of protests at the airport. They hang out for an hour or so and just as they are loading back into the cars the President gets shot. This might be the most secure place on the planet being as the place is surrounded with high walls and is swarming with police, secret service and soldiers. So getting shot here should be impossible, but it happened. The President gets airlifted to a nearby American aircraft carrier where a surgeon repairs the damage. Meanwhile the manhunt for the shooter goes on.
Sounds like an inside job, the stop at Windsor Castle was a last minute deal, unless the protest was designed to force a delay and someone who was in on the plot managed to get the motorcade diverted to the castle where the assassin was waiting. Terrible assassin. There was one shot from a suppressed firearm and they didn't kill the President, they only wounded her.
Windsor Castle is impressive. Wikipedia has a fine collection of pictures.

You might consider President Grace Penn (a woman) as a stand in for President Trump. They are both blond, they both get shot, and once Grace gets shot she becomes blunter, more confrontational, and according to all the career diplomats, more erratic. If you like her style, which I do, you might be a Trump supporter. Weasel words don't impress me. Say what you mean and follow through on what you said. In any case, they all spend all their time swaning around all the fanciest places in Europe, places where mere peasants are not allowed. Everybody thinks they are important, but they can never come to an agreement to do anything useful. The just issue statements and pray. Useless bunch of twits.
On the plus side, all the petty bickering can be pretty entertaining. I laughed out loud many times over the eight episodes.
