That Trump has completely changed the range of promises of the electoral campaign, this is a little bit certain. But few expected that within a few days, the reduction in the price of eggs would be replaced by threats against allied countries such as Denmark or Canada.
America is getting ready to put in the White House the first president in its history, convicted by a court decision. The New York court ruled that Trump is guilty in the scandal of paying bribes to a porn actress in exchange for her silence. But the court also decided that the elected president should not suffer any penalty for the sentence given.
After a long string of surprises, scandals, lies, personal attacks, accusations against anyone who can, changing attitudes and positions and all kinds of other acrobatics during the first term and the second term campaign, Donald Trump is getting ready to sit in The Oval Office with the criminal background made dirty by a court sentence. An undisputed champion of abnormality on the threshold of a journey that could change the whole world. Unfortunately, of course.
The well-known American comedian Seth Meyer said in one of the monologues of the last few days on his show, that he had expected to hear something from Trump about lowering the prices of consumer goods, but when he turned on the TV, he heard instead a threat to the Channel Panama, when he had expected to hear how Trump would unveil the plan for illegal immigration, or for reducing crime or increasing the welfare of the lower class, he had heard how he would be attacked Canada, Greenland and how the name of the Gulf of Mexico would change!
Trump is shuffling the cards on the table before sitting down as the main player. His geopolitical threats, all aimed at historic and close allies, imply a clear willingness of Donald Trump to take the dangerous gamble in world affairs to the end.
The one who regularly presented himself as the "president of peace" has already threatened to annex two NATO allied states, plus Panama. "I do not rule out the use of force against Greenland," he told reporters a few days ago, while for years he has boasted about how long he was president in the years 2016-2020, America did not enter into any war or armed conflict in the world.
During the campaign, Trump promised that the war in Ukraine would end before he entered the White House on January 20. And now those who were waiting for Trump to start the steps to solve the Russian-Ukrainian crisis, have to sit and listen to how Canada of 40 million people will turn into an American province. Even those who expected Trump to launch threats against Iran or China, or to announce concrete steps on the crisis in the Middle East, hear in amazement all day long how he threatens a completely peaceful country like Denmark.
Among the reasons for the annexation of Greenland, which are reminiscent of the West's colonial past, Trump cites the need to control the world's largest island in order to install radars that will signal the eventual launch of Russian ballistic missiles towards USA. The man who once said that the West has fallen on Russia and that the Russians have no intention of attacking us, but we've come to your doorstep, today wants to take an available island in the middle of the Atlantic to set up surveillance systems. of a Russian nuclear attack on America!
That Trump has completely changed the range of promises of the electoral campaign, this is a little bit certain. But few expected that within a few days, the reduction in the price of eggs would be replaced by threats against allied countries such as Denmark or Canada.
It's only been a few weeks since the November 5 election, and the Trump presidency looks like it's already consumed a large chunk of its mandate. The "tariff empire" that he seeks to install as a challenge to the entire globe marks an unknown with still unclear consequences for the future in the four corners of the world. The last few weeks are revealing to us that it is not only China, Russia or Iran that is the objective of this strategy, but also countries with liberal democracies that have been loyal to the US in their foreign policy. It is no coincidence that these days in Copenhagen the media and politicians remind the Americans, not without irony, how Denmark joined the US military campaigns in countries like Afghanistan and Iraq.
The head of the world's most powerful state has started playing poker with the nerves of the globe without even taking office. However, he cannot change something until January 20: he will be the only one of the 47 presidents of the United States who crosses the threshold of the office as a convicted person.
