Trump’s confrontational approach to U.S. allies—threatening tariffs, pushing Canada and Mexico, and pressuring Colombia—risks alienating key partners.
Analysts warn this could push nations toward China, which is eager to capitalize on diplomatic rifts. Panama, after Trump’s canal threat, opened talks with Beijing.
Critics argue Trump’s aggressive diplomacy weakens trust, while supporters claim it reinforces U.S. strength. Despite the rhetoric, some policies, like repatriation flights to Colombia, remain unchanged.
Experts caution that isolating allies may bolster China’s global influence at America’s expense.
Kind of sucks because every one of those “opponents” can have equally seen Trump admit that Musk cracked the election counter and that he actually didn’t win the election. That he is completely fraudulent and all the “Citizens” don’t oppose him cutting that status off their existence and removing their constitutional rights number by number by race and gender into slavery and other “normal” exploitation and constraints. Surrender, surrender, so he can eat your kids for dinner. You think I’m exaggerating.
The opponents likely won’t do it because there’s an asymmetry going on here: they’re far more likely to care about the legitimacy of the electoral process than Trump does. And when someone says that elections were fraudulent, no matter if true or false, that legitimacy takes a blow.

There is no USA much left anymore and they are actively dissassembling it by every move they make.
