Trump's pushed ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has completely collapsed in less than 2 months, the same ceasefire deal that was a copy/paste of Biden's and simply needed pressure added, Israel is now back to their genocidal rampage again. This comes after Trump managed to piss off multiple Middle-Eastern/American allies by proposing an ethnic cleansing of Gaza so that he could build hotels on it. Now he is also threatening Iran and bombing Yemen (Donald the Dove) and Iran has basically told him to fuck off.
In Ukraine, after America is surrendering a dozen concessions to Russia...
Telling Ukraine they need to surrender territory to Russia. Demanding the West stops being mean to Russia in the UN. America voting alongside Russia in the UN. America blocking Ukraine from joining NATO. America won't join any security guarantees for Ukraine. Ukraine must hold immediate elections during a ceasefire. Considering legally recognising Russia's annexation of Crimea. Saying that Russia should be allowed back into G7. Looking at sanction relief for Russia. Already planning future business relationships with Russia.
Alongside trying to pressure Ukraine into a deal by temporarily cutting off aid and intelligence sharing.
Whilst asking nothing of Putin, not demanding anything of Russia, Trump kindly asked Putin (after Putin made him wait, laughed about making him wait on public TV and Russian Media was openly mocking Trump) for a total ceasefire along the frontlines, after he had given Putin dozens of concessions, surely Putin would be kind to the master dealmaker? Nope. Putin rejected his ceasefire proposal whittled it down to a ceasefire on energy infrastructure, Trump of course accepted and made it seem like the best deal ever.
Only, literally the same hour as the talks ended, Russia threw dozens of drones and missiles at Ukraine in a blatant mockery of Trump, hitting Ukraine's energy infrastructure and civilian buildings, after Putin had straight up told Trump that he had ordered his military to not fire at energy infrastructure even before the talks began, not a peep from Donald Trump after being made to look a fool. Then the Kremlin came out with their same demands as always, Ukraine's army must be completely dismantled and no more aid towards them, while Trump plays with his baby rattle and shouts about what a great thing he has achieved.
Meanwhile America destroys its economy and wipes billions off the stock market through its insane tariff plan and this is before the real hit even comes, because Trump keeps backtracking and many investors still believe he is all talk and won't actually go through with many of the tariffs he is proposing. Nevertheless, so far all he has managed to achieve is for Mexico to put more troops on the border (which is likely just going to be Mexico cycling out troops already on the border) and Canada to do something they already passed in parliament last year but now with Trump's stamp on it, both of these things in February and nothing since.
Now America after insulting many European countries, is begging them for eggs, from Denmark to Germany to Lithuania to Finland. Alongside this, America's MIC is likely going to suffer billions in losses in the future, as the world realises America is an unreliable ally, Portugal has already cancelled orders for American F-35s and Canada is reconsidering into their purchases too. Meanwhile France has successfully been pushing a "Buy European" campaign for Europe to only spend money in European military industries rather than American ones.
EU has just announced it will exclude America from its 150bn rearming plan, this is only the 150bn pledged by EU itself, which essentially means this 150bn can only be spent on EU arms companies, unless their home countries sign defence and security pacts with Brussels. The planned fund for capitals to spend on weapons would only be open to EU defence companies. Countries will still be spending hundreds of billions individually outside of this proposal but France has been the largest voice of "buy European" and other countries are heading that direction too.
Germany's Merz is quite outspoken about how we can't trust America anymore and Poland which is one of America's biggest supporters in Europe was just spoken to like shit by America. Trump's rhetoric has caused right-wing parties across Europe to distance themselves from America because association with America right now is toxic, it has in part caused a collapse in Conservative polling in Canada and united Europe even stronger.
Art of the Deal...
