"She has achieved in her five day stint in office…"
Such a statement asserts a definite opinion that the writer considers a FACT - that is, TRUE.
When a speaker/writer prefixes a statement with 'It seems...' or 'It appears…'
…then it means, 'In my opinion…and I could be mistaken…but…'; or 'The way I see it, and others may disagree, but…'
They are moderating their statement from asserting something as virtually an indisputable FACT, to 'an opinion', 'a point of view', 'how I interpret events since she took office.'
Then……when the speaker adds 'would', as in:
"It would seem/appear…"
"I would imagine…"
"I would suppose…"
then he is trying to make the statement impersonal, as if he is saying:
"I do not have all the facts, but if you press me for a comment on that situation, then she has……………….her colleagues couldn't in numerous days . But again, other facts/evidence may come to light that discounts this opinion."
It is a favourite way for politicians/political commentators/diplomats to talk to the press!
