Let´s see if I got this right...
No other great power has joined Trump´s Board of Peace. Hamas have not been disarmed in Gaza, and shows no particular intention of doing so. The Iranian mullahs have not been overthrown and the extent of damage on their famed nuclear weapons program is unknown. Zelensky is still at large (LOL).
China succesfully pushed back against Trump´s tariffs. Despite the capture of Maduro and his waifu, the Communist regime of Venezuela is still in power. Thailand and Cambodia haven´t really ceased hostilities. Trump´s posturing on Greenland turned out to be both fake and gay.
It´s not even clear whether he will impose a 200% tariff on French wine and champagne as punishment for Macron refusing to join the previously mentioned Board of Piss, sorry, Peace. But at least he got his hand on the Nobel peace prize medal!
Maybe we misunderstood the entire Trump thing. Maybe what should scare us is not that an unpredictable vain persona can wield the entire strength of Amerikan Empire. Maybe the real problem is the exact opposite: the God-Emperor has no clothes and even his Potemkin village is much smaller than expected. What will happen when somebody somewhere realizes this and starts pushing? *Really* pushing?
I suppose we just have to wait and see...
