Great powers often decline through self-inflicted blows. By starting a trade war he was unable to follow through on, Donald Trump may have just dealt a severe one to the United States.
It has been obvious for many years that the Trump movement aims at the downfall of America, through the promotion and exaggeration of America’s flaws and the increasingly violent suppression of its virtues.
That’s why Putin bought him.
And all the MAGAts are behind him. And they’re not even getting paid lol
The world applaudes the downfall of america
I don’t think the world applauds that at all. The US used to be the good guys. Very flawed but still “good” as things go. Now they’re just dangerous and thrashing wildly…
The US has never been the good guys.

*Putin’s tariffs.
Except, being controlled by Putin makes trump an adversary.
This is erasure of the unique grassroots brand of American stupidity.
Hey man, it’s called “American exceptionalism”
“Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself?..”
And this is why I support the tariffs
The world needs to be free of the US and their oppression.
Trump is owned by one of those adversaries. So yes, they could, all they needed was the right tool for the job.
