Why Trump is a threat to world peace today.

[abhiseshakana]

Anyone with a half-decent brain knows that already op. That pathetic clown of a president is a threat to his own freaking country and is burning it to the ground step by step and the funny thing is that some of his moronic supporters are encouraging such stuff.

Him and his pathetic ICE army are acting all high and mighty because they have the military on their side. Let's see how long that lasts.

I think Trump's leadership character shaped by his expertise and experience as business man especially on real estate zone which usually use winner loser culture and also zero sum negotiation. Simply said if other party benefiting then US loose, compromise is weak signal and he sees long term cooperation as exploitation that's why no multilateralism, no global governance, no moral leadership and universal value on his dictionary.

His statement, "My instinct is better than experts", showing he is a narcissistic leader so his policy always impulsive based on his perception. We can see all his political action based on emotion, he use the world cheating America to give him vote and support and he can packed all his unreliable action to be acceptable and has psychological effect for his supporter, they cheers finally someone fight back.

100% sure, he is MADMAN theorist and even he is not a Machiavellian but he practice almost all Machiavelli principle intuitively. Based on my observation, Machiavelli describe the political world correctly, its reality world not idealism world so for existence and stability , leader must be act tough even cruel by using its power, better to be feared than loved. Actually all leader in this world applied Machiavelli style (national interest is above everything even moral value) but not all leader has confidence for appearance of his strength, and this confidence level up and sown based on how strong their bargaining power. A POTUS, Trump very confidence with US profile as world biggest bargaining power, so Trump dare to act arrogantly.

What i worried about Trump are he fasten global chaos by his unpredictable action, every party from ally until enemy can not predict (usually US policy predictable). It makes all country prepare for conflict because US under Trump also manage security alliance as transactional business, with this worriedness every nation start arm their self. Previously US always be a referee, when Trump avoid its role, its opened space for regional conflict, proxy war, middle power expansion, will it lead to chaos normality and will it triggering a wave of strongman leader around the world.

All I know is, he is doing it all for his country, and I think it's not a bad kind of action. He is a patriot, and a lot of Americans do support him because of that.

Now, other countries would probably not like that because it sounds selfish and power hungry. But they are known as one of the strongest countries in the world, so he is trying to keep that reputation. I am not a Trump supporter, but I don't hate him. I believe he is just an honest guy who doesn't like telling lies in front of the camera, although I think he will need a good PR to keep the statements clean, and probably won't hurt other feelings that keep on hurting his reputation in other countries.

Trump has a strong personality that makes him a threat to his challengers, so I don't think these people can do something about it. And you're right, what he'll said he'll do at all cost, so that kind of personality will surely be a threat to everyone who opposes his own rule.

Where there is Trump, there is power, and because he is the country's president so he will do everything for his own country, regardless if the other countries are seeing it Trump has already crossed the line, he won't mind it.

It could be that his actions were a strategy to gain their respect in all aspects, perhaps good for the prosperity of his people, but those actions have really crossed the line. Now other countries must unite and create policies that can match him even though there are great risks that may have to be accepted. I even have a suspicion that Trump is indeed making a conspiracy by only bullying other countries and creating political and economic chaos in the world to achieve their big desires or at least to be able to cover up the crisis they are facing. I think Trump's reckless actions will not last long and he will disappear because of his arrogance.

It can be a strategy, but it's a worrying strategy, since the last time the Americans conquered was a long time ago, and now they seem to be repeating it. I don't know why other international committees are not doing anything to stop it, because America knows that it is weakening in terms of world power, so they are taking steps to keep it, but in the most ugly way. They want to show that the country is still strong internationally, which is because many countries know that they are not really that strong anymore, so now they are just bullying weaker countries that they know cannot fight them back.

Are you a U.S citizen? The majority of them aren't even complaining, only the opposition party are complaining, but to be honest if things work out like trump planned it will be for the greater good of the America people, don't you think?

It could look totally wrong in the eye of people like myself who isn't into politics but like I have said, if other countries accept everything that trump is asking of them then American will enjoy the victory for a long time.

Don't even try to understand someone who is a strategist, America won't to take the lead in everything, who am I to hate or try to stop them, it's on the master of universe to either grant it or reject it.

Are you also a US citizen? How do you know that the majority of them aren't complaining or upset about what Trump is doing?

According to my quick research, Trump's approval rating is at its lowest level since he took office, hovering around 40%. Meanwhile, the disapproval rating has risen to 55%. With these result, how can we say that Americans are happy with Trump?

Not all Americans are belligerent and enjoy bullying other, or plundering the resources of other nations like Trump

Donald trump the president of the United States of America is today the biggest threats to world peace if you ask me. Because from his first term as president he has always acted against international law and even against the constitution of the United States of America. We can see this in his policies which he has implemented, most especially in his return to the white house as a president under his second term.  Trump has threaten world peace because of how his style, policies, and unpredictability affect a fragile global system .

He is a threat to world peace and the global economy. He is preparing everything to strike Iran, and I would ask you guys to note this and take a screenshot. He will attack Iran in the next few weeks. He doesn't care about International law, and he himself already admitted that. If Americans like him after doing all this bullshit, what can we say? The Americans voted for him and they should be liable for all this damages.

Trump is initiating the World War 3 and I believe it is already happening. No one yet declared it, but it is already running.

You, like many 3rd world idiots that are reading misinformation and propaganda on a daily basis, got everything backwards. The USA is the only thing that has been keeping the "intentional" checks and balances. Without the USA, nobody cares about any of that and will do whatever they want to do. This is not a desperate move by the USA to remain relevant, it is a sign of dangerous times to come. If the USA stops being relevant, there will be a WW3 shortly after. Whoever starts it does not matter, but you will see once superpower start conquering other countries -- you will cry and complain to God, you will desperately call back Uncle Sam for help but he will no longer listen to you and it will only be your own fault, not God's and not your Uncle's. You will be conquered, and you will be a slave. Congratulations, you have played yourself. Be careful what you wish for, especially if you have no idea what you are talking about. People need to shut the fuck up, internet should be abolished for 99% of the people.

Are you also a US citizen? How do you know that the majority of them aren't complaining or upset about what Trump is doing?

How about you stop spreading misinformation against Trump you 3rd world piece of shit? You live in a shithole that has barely exited the stone age and you come here to talk shit about the best country in the world, the richest and the most advanced country without which you would be conquered by another superpower. If you even did a little bit research before writing your shitpost, you would know that this happens often with presidents even those that do not act so strongly like Trump -- or those that barely act at all like Biden. You deserve to be conquered for being an ungrateful piece of shit.

HIGHLIGHTS
President Biden's average approval rating ranged from a high of 55% to a low of 38%, with an overall average across his term of 43%.
His disapproval rating ranged from a high of 57% to a low of 34% with an overall average across his term of 52%.
The approval rating sp
read—the difference between the president's average approval and disapproval ratings on any one given day—ranged from an average 20% net approval to an average 19% net disapproval, with his overall average spread at 9% disapproval.

And who cares about international law? Stop being biased against Trump because you are weak minded and easily offended. Does the EU care about international law? No. Does Russia? Also no. Does China? Also no. It is a game of pretend that keeps the checks and balances in place. Trump and the USA are the only thing that are keeping you from World War 3 and being conquered. If and when the USA loses its supremacy, and if we move to a multipolar world, there will be a world war 3. It will be your fault and the fault of people like you for being so stupid. Calling the president that has brokered many peace deals and has been trying to shut down larger wars the whole time a threat to world peace.

Every US president since forever has operated on national interest first. The difference is packaging. Previous administrations relied upon moral terms (democracy promotion, rules-based order, all that). But take a look at the actual foreign policy decisions. And it's always been transactional underneath.

There's something that this leadership style unlocks that institutional types will not understand or even acknowledge.

The peace dividend died somewhere at around 2022 and nobody had a funeral.

And what is this alternative exactly? The multilateral system was crumbling even before Trump. The UN is barely able to pass a resolution without a veto from someone. WTO is basically paralyzed. Climate agreements are disregarded by the countries that matter most.

Doesn't mean that I like where this goes. Strongman politics spreading globally whilst alliances are broken and weapons stockpiled. Historical pattern is that ends badly for everyone including the people who think they're winning.

We should not blame Americans just for what Trump is doing. Although many of them voted for him, they could not have controlled or foreseen that he would become so brutal. The party responsible for all of this is the US government. Because they can stop and neutralize Trump's action through the mechanisms and institutions they control. But they did not do that, and even the Democrats almost tacitly supported it

The US government is a threat to global peace and the economy, not just Trump.

Honestly why would they do something about it? We are not seeing something big changing at the moment and the reality is that we are not going to see it get better anytime soon neither. So Europeans or anyone really, do not get involved with USA decisions to do something and they just leave them be.

There is no benefit to gain from trying to stop USA, because that would just hurt you and not gain you anything. Ignoring them is a lot easier, and as long as is not your nation they are attacking, ignoring is the best option.

Who to blame then?
The people who live in other countries? People living in other countries cannot vote for their opposition party, so they cannot be blamed. The Americans know very well about Trump. He has ruled the US in the past, and they should know how terrible he is. However, they choose violence again. What could I say about it, actually? All the American leaders has almost similar character. There is no gurantee that Kamala would do the opposite. She could became worse than Trump. America is fucking the entire world economy. This is the sad but real truth.

[r_victory]

I think world peace was already fragile long before Trump took office as President of the United States. Many countries are carrying out military actions, some even possessing nuclear power. Think of North Korea, for example; nobody knows what's really going on there, and I think they are more threatening than Trump himself. I'm not defending the actions of the American president, but he's not the only threat to world "peace"...

To me, the feeling of peace in the world is false, and something very serious could happen soon, whether through Trump's interference or not.

While I agree with the rest, north kore was a bad example I mean those guys would nuke themselves if they had any nukes, they are dying from starvation if there is no help from China, they can't even sustain living let alone a war, so believe me, only reason north Korea even exists is because China lets them.

But aside from that, yeah sure even before trump Ukraine and Russia had a war, people think this is the first one, they had a war over ten years ago that caused Ukraine to lose lands, but at least it ended, and now they are in another one. Or Palestine and Israel, that has been going on for decades, way before trump. And many more all around the world like that. USA also had wars all around the world, way before trump. So these are not new things to non-Americans.

I guess that it is the best thing to do. If it's none of your business, it's best to ignore it since you're not affected.

But I think that those who are concerned are thinking that much, while there can be a domino effect for what he decides for.

We could only careless about it since those effects are indirect to us and so, I agree with what you've said.

I just want to ask, if the US and its allies had the right to possess nuclear weapons and use them to threaten other nations. Why is it that other countries such as North Korea and Iran attempting to acquire nuclear weapons are considered a threat to world peace? 


If I remember correctly, the US currently possesses over 5,000 nuclear warhead, ranking second only to Russia


Is the US the creator of this world, and does this world belong to them? Otherwise, why should we listen to them and believe that everything they say is the truth?

As you said, US presidents all have similar personalities, and there's no guarantee that Kamala will not do something as crazy as Trump if she get elected. And as I said, the US government is the real threat to world peace and is to blame, not US citizens or citizens of any other country.

As long as the US dominates the world, it will always sow instability and global conflict to maintain its position. Regardless of who becomes president, the primary task will remain maintaining the US position as the leading superpower.

I partially agree with your statement. But as of now, I would still blame US citizens for not speaking out against their president. They could start a protest like many countries and create pressure on the government. Most Gen Z people are now protesting against the government when there is injustice. My country's government was too bad. The Prime Minister was a dictator, and the Gen Z Protest did their job. The same thing happens in Nepal and Sri Lanka.

Given these results in the table, can't I expect the US people to speak out for justice, and when they see their president is not doing something right? If they do not speak against the president, I would blame them.

[Satofan44]

Wrong, importing dangerous and degenerate migrants is not a "national interest first" policy -- it is a "get stupid voters that are addicted to social aid" policy. Therefore, do not make these false claims.

Previous administrations relied upon moral terms (democracy promotion, rules-based order, all that). But take a look at the actual foreign policy decisions. And it's always been transactional underneath.

Correct, but it would be more correct to say that they are lies. They never really cared about any of that, and neither do the EU countries. For them to actually care about those things, they have to act in a consistent way towards everyone on the global stage -- both their allies and their enemies. Instead, especially Europe, they were extremely biased depending on who is conducting some action. Therefore, they never cared about these supposed values at all. Most EU politicians only care about getting rich while they yap about some bullshit human rights and rules, while dangerous migrants are destroying and replacing their own people.

And what is this alternative exactly? The multilateral system was crumbling even before Trump. The UN is barely able to pass a resolution without a veto from someone. WTO is basically paralyzed. Climate agreements are disregarded by the countries that matter most.

Yes, all of those organizations were useless and unnecessary but bureaucrats love them because they create jobs for incompetent people.

Almost everyone on both sides of the system is on board with Trump. Democrats occasionally give resistance but this is for a public show, they do not actually resist his visions, because they want to publicly fight it out to get some more financial benefits for their own party members. That is it, anyone who believes anything else is a completely naive tool.

Is the US the creator of this world, and does this world belong to them? Otherwise, why should we listen to them and believe that everything they say is the truth?

The US is, in fact, the creator of the current world. Were it not for the actions of the US in the past century, you would probably currently be mobilized and in some war instead of posting this from your home. Enjoy the benefits of what Uncle has accomplished for you, because if you continue this way, you will soon learn how the world looks like when the Uncle stops protecting it. 

[arbitbit]

What I find interesting in this discussion is how much of it focuses on personality rather than incentives. Whether people see Trump as a threat or as a strong leader, most major powers tend to act according to economic and strategic interests first, not individual temperament. The Greenland example is a good case, it sounds outrageous on the surface, but when you look at Arctic shipping routes, rare earth resources, and military positioning, it fits into a broader great-power competition that has been developing for years. In that sense, the policy direction may matter more than the person delivering it.

At the same time, unpredictability has real financial consequences. Markets price risk quickly, and aggressive tariff talk or alliance friction can push capital toward safe assets while weakening global trade confidence. But history also shows that institutions, lobby groups, and economic constraints usually moderate extreme outcomes. The U.S. president is powerful, yet not unconstrained.

So the real question might not be “Is one leader a threat to world peace?” but rather “Are we entering a period where economic nationalism becomes the default strategy for many countries?” If that is the trend, then what we are seeing may be less about one administration and more about a structural shift in the global order.
