A superpower needs to behave like a superpower. Period!
The US is the current superpower in the world followed by China. A superpower has heavy responsibilities. While displaying its overall superiority, it's incumbent on it to carry the entire world along with it, providing security where it's required, compassion where it's essential and clear alignment with the truth where falsehood and injustice thrive.
However, the US under their current President Donald Trump is careening from one disaster to the other. Initially, there was a sympathy wave toward him because the Americans thought that perhaps, the 2020 presidential elections were stolen from him by Biden and his Democrats. Moreover, his opponent, Kamala Harris was a lacklustre candidate.
He came out with flying colours in the presidential elections. One thought that he'd be magnanimous in victory though keeping the interests of his country as his prime aim!
And, then, see what he has done and I shall list only a few of them here :-
* he wants to buy Greenland
* he wants Canada to become the US's 51st state
* misbehaved with world leaders, at his Oval office
* dictating terms with other countries to follow his thought process
* burnt his fingers when he asked Russia and Ukraine to stop the war
* on the domestic front, he has taken very stringent action against illegal immigrants
* he wants to take over the Panama Canal
* his public spat with Elon Musk is not becoming of a President
* imposing unreasonable tariffs on the goods of other countries without discussions
Now tell me, is he sane or has he lost it or is he drunken with power?
He will be dealt with appropriately as he loses the goodwill of his own people. The world, without exception, is disgusted with him.
It's only a matter of time when his own people will turn against him.
Tailpiece.
Whither the US under Trump's leadership?
