US Politics

Trump didn’t break this system; he’s its product. His rise was the inevitable consequence of decades of decline — the final expression of a system where ignorance and arrogance outweigh truth and competence. The US for decades, cast itself as the indispensable nation. Now it’s a destabiliser, exporting chaos and importing despair. Allies hedge their bets elsewhere. Rivals grow stronger. Trust in Washington has evaporated. As Trump doubles down on vengeance, nationalism, and war profiteering, America accelerates toward irrelevance. History will not remember it as the “shining city on a hill” but as an empire that mistook terror for leadership, propaganda for truth, and Trump for salvation — and in doing so, hastened its own collapse.
