| Zkuq said: The conclusion I'm drawing from the news I've read today is that Trump is really set out to deteriorate US strength against Russia and China, and I'm not sure whether it's isolationism or his stupidity (or both). |
At this stage, whether Trump is a Russian asset or useful idiot for Russia, the results are exactly the same, likewise for whether it's a mixture of isolationism or stupidity. Since becoming President he has attacked American allies (Canada + Europe), threatened American allies (Canada + Europe), went over Ukraine and Europe's heads and gave Russia two major wins before even starting negotiations, backstabbed Ukraine and Europe, has been kinder to Putin than he has to America's own allies, invited Putin an internationally wanted war criminal to the White House, invited Russia back into the G7 and done more positive for Russia's economy than America's.
Not sure if he is a Russian asset or useful idiot but I don't care, it's irrelevant at this stage, I think one thing is clear, Trump has more in common with Putin than he does with any American ally and that is why he prioritises Putin, that is the way of the new world and American allies need to wake up and see that and cut themselves off from America. It's no longer the America we once knew. If this was WW2 then Trump would be telling Britain to surrender to Nazi Germany, blocking us from NATO and telling us to give them Scotland, Lol.
I'm pretty sure Project 2025 is being played out exactly as planned, one of the things suggested in that was to overwhelm people right at the start to break them, they're counting on people losing faith and fight, tuning out from the news because it's too much, the tactic is to overwhelm and then push their awful policies when nobody has any spirit left to fight back or rather isn't paying attention.
