Summary
Trump’s recent shift in Ukraine policy, including siding with Russia at the UN and proposing peace talks excluding Ukraine, has alarmed Western allies and weakened U.S. credibility.
European leaders fear his stance strengthens China and Russia, as countries seek alternative partners. Asian allies worry U.S. support for Taiwan may waver.
While Trump defends his approach as prioritizing U.S. interests, critics warn it could embolden Putin and destabilize Europe.
NATO’s future remains uncertain, with leaders questioning American commitment and preparing for a world where the U.S. is no longer a reliable ally.
China is gearing up to be the next super power,
Russia in its stupidity got baited into Ukraine and is tanking its resources into it. US now in its stupidity is being baited into shooting itself in the foot. All the big players on the court are distracted by some petty stupidness,
All the while China just sits there

The reasons for which the US was able to turn fascist are all homegrown. We don’t need to resort to blaming foreigners for the rise of fascism - which is the only logical conclusion to a country that was founded on genocide and colonialism under the sole guidance of white slavers. This is peak American exceptionalism.
Social safety nets, wages, childcare, healthcare, mental health, working hours, etc… have all been crumbling for some time now. The fact that our adversaries picked up on this and exploited it by no means absolves Americans of their turn towards fascism.
If, at the end of these 4 years when democracy has been truly and completely demolished, the only lesson you’ve learned is “damn russian spies destroyed america!” You haven’t learned your lesson, and you’re honestly spitting in the face of all the victims of US policy both domestic and abroad.

USA forms an empire and each empire follows roughly the same path. There always comes a time when greed gets too much and the whole system starts to rot from the inside out. Who exactly the greedy bastards are that do the deed is up to change but they’re always there. It’s a classic.
China won already. We are all just kind of sliding into their rule at this point.
And North Korea
