Give Trump the Isolation He Craves | The Walrus
Briefly

The article argues that the United States has historically been a stabilizing force in global affairs, but this has changed under Trump’s administration. Trump's claims, such as labeling Ukraine the aggressor in its war with Russia, exacerbate global instability. The article suggests that Trump's deliberate chaos aims to elevate the US at the expense of others. It emphasizes the importance of international cooperation among democratic nations to combat shared challenges like authoritarianism and climate change, even as US participation becomes less reliable and potentially disruptive.
The chaos is wholly intentional. Its objective is to elevate the US by pushing the rest of the world down. It's the goal of a bully, empowered by a malaise of misinformation.
The need for international cooperation has never been greater; countries committed to democratic principles must redouble efforts to find collective solutions to shared problems.
