Much Ado About Trump

Those who hoped for something better by electing Trump again, are going to be disappointed.

Looking at Trump’s strange silence after he was elected speaks volumes about what his true plans are.

He has been surrounding himself with inept advisors who don’t know about the subjects they will be dealing with, especially Russia.

Already, Trump is blowing the dust off his old ways and is threatening tariffs, sanctions, and other nonsense against anyone who doesn’t want to do what he tells them.

He has issued tariff threats to China and EU, as well as BRICS countries, if they dare to dump the dollar as their trade and reserve currency.

Trump needs to realize that the environment that he is walking into is not the same as it was when he left.

He has less options and less room for maneuver. He will also find out very quickly how degraded and limited US power has become, militarily, economically, and strategically.

He has appointed mediocrities to negotiate with Russia, and has put forward a plan to end the SMO in ukraine that contains ridiculous demands that Russia will laugh out of the room within the first hour.

Neither Trump, or any of his deluded advisors have any grasp of the realities of real war, real economy, and Russian history and realities there. They all think that they are working from positions of superiority and strength against a backward and ignorant people.

They will quickly find out that this situation is reversed.

And then what?

Because when Russia says NYET to Trump’s looney and unrealistic peace plans, he will most likely escalate and threaten Russia. He will give ukrops more weapons and more money in order to force Russia into doing what he wants.

Trump could very possibly make the situation worse, and his regime may end up being more of a disaster than the Biden one. 

Trump is an American exceptionalist, who believes that everything and everyone is inferior to the US, and expandable in the name of US interests.

Putin is most likely waiting out Biden to see what Trump will do, and is refraining from aggravating the situation, as Biden would like him to do.

But if Putin sees that Trump is peddling the same bullcrap, and refuses to accept Russian terms that resolve issues of security in and around ukraine, permanently, at that point Russia will take off the gloves and bring the SMO to and end on its own terms on the battlefield.

Putin is most likely wasting his time, and giving Trump and the idiots he appointed time to collude with the Biden cabal against Russia and others. Hopefully, Putin is watching them.

Next year, the war will end to Russia’s satisfaction, regardless of where the war is fought-negotiating table or the battlefield.

The US is a declining nation, and tariffs and sanctions will no longer work. Trump’s threats against China, Russia, and BRICS will only accelerate this decline.

The US party is over.
