Why is Donald Trump viewed as weak by world leaders?
World leaders are looking at Donald Trump and they smell weakness. Donald Trump seems frozen. He promised that there would be peace in Ukraine in 24 hours from when he took office. In fact, he said he would negotiate a peace deal even before day one. It would be easy. He failed at that. He failed at trying to intimidate President Zelensky. He's failed at trying to intimidate Canada to annex it. He's failed to intimidate Europe. whether you're our allies or now former allies based on Donald Trump's behavior, or whether you're our adversaries who Donald Trump wants to be friends with, but who are viewing Donald Trump with mockery and weakness like China and Russia. no matter what, everybody is looking at Donald Trump and sensing the same thing.
This is an individual who does not know what he's doing, who can't handle this position, who just wants to go golfing and would rather post memes than caring about any details. And this is someone who's focused seemingly on just destroying the United States of America. Take a look at just the international headlines like this in the UK from the Daily Star, madness of King Don, another ordinary day in the grand old USA, man baby Trump, man baby, insists he will defy law to be president until 2023. World markets tumble over new threats on tariffs. You got headlines like this as well. Putin begins biggest Russian military call-up in years. President Vladimir Putin has called up 160,000 men aged 18 to 30, Russia's highest number of conscripts since 2011. As Spravdy explains, while some still want to entertain the notion that Russia's dictator isn't planning on a full war,
On the European continent, Putin just signed this decree, you see it right here, for spring mobilization, growing the Russian army by another 160,000 troops, in addition to the constant influx of contract soldiers from North Korea and elsewhere. Your friend Donald, Kim Jong-un, Donald. As Jay in Kiev, who does a great job chronicling what's going on in Russia, Ukraine, and Eastern Europe, as he writes, Russia readies for full-scale war against Europe while Trump tries to extort all of Europe. When America again needs help, allies will be sending blankets. Headlines like this as well from Taiwan. The Chinese military announced large-scale drills, PBS writes, in the waters and airspace around Taiwan on Tuesday that include an aircraft carrier battle group, as it again warned the self-ruled island democracy against seeking formal independence, CNBC writes. China kicks off military drills near Taiwan. warns islands independence means war.
You see right here, these are some of the images of China's Shandong carrier spotted in the distance by the Taiwanese Navy ships. When Donald Trump showed weakness in the Oval Office and attacked Zelensky, when Donald Trump was clearly showing that he could not manage what was going on with Russia's unlawful invasion. China saw that as weakness. Putin saw that as weakness. By the way, our European allies, who Donald Trump doesn't want to be our allies and has pushed them away, they saw weakness. Canada saw weakness. Australia, New Zealand saw weakness. And so the entire geopolitical power structure has changed dramatically. America is isolated and alone. Do you think that our allies, or I guess based on Donald Trump, our former allies are sharing intelligence now with the United States when we learn more stories about Mike Walls and Pete Hegseth?
Donald Trump's national security advisor and Donald Trump's defense secretary who were on that group text thread where they invited the editor in chief from the Atlantic, where they were discussing their war plans, where they accidentally invited a reporter. And they said, oh, those war plans aren't classified, even though we talk about F-18s and specific strike times in Yemen, even though we are talking about specific drones that we're using and when we're using them. Oh, those aren't war plans. Case closed. That's what the Trump regime says. Case closed. We're not talking about it anymore.
