By Matt Underwood Trump says China conspiring against US with Putin, Kim meeting at military parade, and honestly, it’s pretty clear he’s just now catching up to a reality the rest of us have been observing for a while. It’s like he’s just realized that his “friends” aren’t actually his friends, and they’re all hanging out without him. This realization seems to stem from a recent military parade, where China, Russia, and North Korea were clearly in cahoots, a move that has apparently lit a fire under the former president.
The whole situation reeks of a classic Trump reaction: anger, jealousy, and a complete lack of self-awareness. It’s not surprising, really. He spent his time in office alienating allies and cozying up to rivals. Now, he seems genuinely surprised that these rivals are now collaborating against the US. You know, the very nation he led and seemingly weakened during his tenure.
This is, of course, not a secret conspiracy. It’s playing out in the open. The problem is, Trump doesn’t seem to understand the rules of the game. He thought he could schmooze with Putin while simultaneously antagonizing America’s traditional allies. The result? A fractured global order, a strengthened China-Russia axis, and a US that is arguably less influential on the world stage.
The response? The usual Trumpian playbook: threats of tariffs, two-week warnings, and a whole lot of bluster. Meanwhile, the real players are out there, making deals and consolidating power. It’s like he’s still stuck in the toddler phase, throwing a temper tantrum because he wasn’t invited to the party.
It’s pretty obvious that China, Russia, and North Korea aren’t exactly fans of the US, especially under Trump’s watch. He managed to drive a wedge between America and its closest allies, while simultaneously making himself look foolish on the global stage. This is not some secret cabal; it’s the direct result of his policies and his own personality.
Remember how he tried to drive a wedge between China and Russia? Instead, he inadvertently pushed them closer together, not to mention handing them India as well as tearing Western alliances apart. It’s a masterclass in how *not* to conduct foreign policy, all fueled by a giant ego and a complete misunderstanding of international relations.
The fact that China, Russia, and North Korea are now aligning against the US shouldn’t come as a surprise. They’re exploiting the weaknesses in American government, a situation Trump himself contributed to. He’s practically handed them the tools to do it. It’s a consequence of weakening alliances and cozying up to dictators, all while ignoring the long-term implications.
And let’s be clear: this isn’t just about one military parade. It’s about the bigger picture. Trump’s actions have fundamentally reshaped the global landscape, and not in a way that benefits the United States. He antagonized the entire world, then is shocked when countries do what is in their best interest, which is not necessarily aligning with the US.
The damage Trump has inflicted on the US’s international relationships will take generations to repair. His actions have essentially given America’s rivals a free pass to undermine its influence and challenge its power. And the worst part is, he’s completely oblivious to the long-term consequences of his actions.
Trump’s reaction to this situation is not only predictable, but it’s also a testament to his own failings as a leader. He’s angry because he wasn’t invited. He’s upset because he’s being excluded. He’s just now realizing that the world doesn’t revolve around him. It’s a sad state of affairs when the former leader of the free world is essentially reduced to a sulking child, watching from the sidelines as the adults do business.
