In a multipolar world, its reach and influence are greatly reduced. The fact that they are visible and talked about (which is great thing) has to be decoupled from their actual reach. They were much more powerful and relevant ten years ago, when 99% of the population had never heard of them or didn't care. A collapse of the EU (which I see as inevitable) will mark the end of this era (which on the scale of history will have been very brief, just over a century). This short article presents a great summary of what I refer to when I say the Trump years brought a massive tectonic shift. It isn't a secondary issue, it is the core issue and to me it's all that really matters: Davos: As an Era Comes to a Close Trump's 'America First' doctrine conflicted directly with Davos's fundamental values, such as free trade, multilateralism, and institutional cooperation. https://politicstoday.org/davos-as-an-era-comes-to-a-close/Sat, 30 May 2026 08:18:50 +0000Are you sure you read the correct article?

I realised that you have reached your level and are only able to regurgitate the same theme. Far more interesting to discuss current affairs with someone knowledgeable, no matter their views.

Ukraine bombs merchant ships with drones and then blames Putin. EU leaders in unison blame Putin. Western MSM blames Putin. UK, France, Germany, Denmark et.al, build long-range strike drones, sends them to Ukraine, provides targeting intelligence with NATO troops programming the missiles and drones, and strike deep within Russia. Russia finally says, "That freaking enough," and drone fabrication plants in the UK, France, Germany, Denmark et.al are reduced to smoking holes in the ground. NATO declares Article 5 and sends their own cannon fodder to the Ukrainian Front. Western MSM proudly displays headlines: "NATO Wins; Russia Loses." The West's citizenry cheers the 'destruction of Russia.' NATO implements plans to do the same to China. Reality doesn't matter. Only narratives. Nukes are launched. Bend over and kiss your buttocks goodbye, useless eaters. Fyi - Erdogan doesn't have a clue to what side he wants to be on.Sat, 30 May 2026 08:13:03 +0000After all the miscreants Trump pardoned I doubt Hunter is a danger to anyone.

But as the dust settles, some Republicans are asking a difficult question: are Trump’s victories strengthening the party — or accelerating his own political decline? The answer could shape both the midterms and the final years of his presidency. Loyalty Triumphs Over Electability Trump made 118 endorsements across House, Senate and governor races, emerging undefeated. Yet many of those contests were uncontested, while several high-profile victories came at a cost. The clearest example is Texas, where Trump’s late endorsement helped Attorney General Ken Paxton defeat long-serving Senator John Cornyn in a bruising Republican primary. Cornyn was viewed by many party strategists as a reliable fundraiser and a safer general-election candidate. Paxton’s victory may now force Republicans to spend heavily defending a seat that once looked secure. A Party Remade In Trump’s Image The primary season has reinforced a familiar pattern. Trump continues to prioritise personal loyalty over establishment credentials, reshaping the Republican Party around candidates closely aligned with his agenda. That strategy may strengthen his influence inside the party. But it also risks narrowing the GOP’s appeal among swing voters at a time when economic concerns remain dominant and Trump’s approval ratings face pressure. Critics within Republican ranks fear some candidates who thrive in primaries may struggle in broader state-wide contests. The Rebels Are No Longer Bound Trump’s victories have created another problem: the Republicans he pushed aside are no longer politically dependent on him. Figures such as Senator Bill Cassidy, Representative Thomas Massie and retiring Senator Thom Tillis have become increasingly willing to challenge the White House publicly. Without re-election calculations hanging over them, they have more freedom to oppose key elements of Trump’s agenda. A Narrow Majority Faces New Strains The consequences could be felt most sharply in the Senate. Republicans hold a slim majority, and internal divisions are becoming harder to ignore. Some lawmakers privately fear that removing experienced incumbents has weakened party unity at precisely the moment Trump needs it most. While his grip on Republican primaries remains formidable, critics argue that every victory may be creating new political liabilities. For a president still dominating his party, the paradox is growing harder to ignore: Trump keeps winning battles, but some Republicans fear the war for political control is becoming more difficult.
