    and SOOOOO much trust was broken globally by the Trump administration

    Trump 1.0 was kind of forgiven because well, they made an oopsie and wont do that again…

    Crimean invasion was still ignored

    and then Trump 2.0

    I do blame much of the rest of the world though, Trump 1.0 was time for them to come together and yet we had Brexit, Meoni, the rise of the AfD, Le Pen in France, Obe Nation in Australia and on and on. Sure, people point to Orban but we went from far right nazis to centre right, not exactly ground breaking and Ukraine is still being hammered by a despotic nation led by a bully and the rest of the world cowers behind their own timidity. Then we have the Gaza shitshow, Iran and the mighty hammer of climate change that seems likely to collapse civilisation being ignored.

    Trump’s not to blame for all that, even though he had his finger in the pot.
