Donald Trump’s imperial presidency is a throwback to a greedier, pernicious age | Simon Tisdall

DONALD Trump Empire is the Tawdry, Threadbare issue. The emperor has no clothes to avoid his fake judgment. It lacks the crown and the resurrection, resorting to vulgar relationships and baseball caps. His throne is only the pulpit of the fatwa, his palace, a night house, his revelation, or his service is just common breakthroughs. His royal decrees – executive orders – judicially disputed. While it was raging like Lear, his critics are publicly crucified or thrown on black in Fox News.

However, despite everything Plebeian, Parcenu is Trump’s global show, his brands, and her most heinous crimes. He wanders around the wave of history and all human experience, as if the conquest, genocide, ethnic equality, economic exploitation and cultural invasion have not been tried before. If it is not really clear, it’s now. He wants to rule the world.

Trump’s demands are a threat to Canada and Panama Greenland Reviving elite delusions Grandfather Elon Musk and TechnocraticIt is a right -wing popular movement in the thirties of the twentieth century, which sought to unify North and Central America during the United States – “Technology”. The mentality that feeds such excuses is rooted in the depth of the national soul. It is a mixture of Monroe doctrine, “clear fate” and the burden of the white man. He is evil, he is harmful, and he has returned.

In 1823, President James Monroe, who raised the predatory European powers, has identified what will today become Russia, Vladimir Putin, among other things, the “field of influence”. His sect was later used to justify American intervention in Latin America. The indicated destiny was the belief, which was popular after 1845, that the young republic was charged with divine charge of spreading sovereignty and “influence of civilization” throughout the continent and to the Pacific region.

The original Americans, who highlighted and deprived, were major victims. Dechest Destiny helped spread slavery when new countries joined the Union. The subsequent colonialism of the Philippines, Cuba and Hawaii were a natural extension. In 1899, the racist Rodrd Kipling poem, The burden of the white manUrged the Americans to simulate the British Empire and take over global responsibility for the management of “new thorny peoples”.

This last phrase describes Trump’s view today, which includes two million Palestinians Stnard in GazaWho wants that Approach to Somalia Or some other promised lands. Migrants on the borders of Mexico face the exhausting biases of the white man as well. Will Trump try to purify the ethnic cleansing of citizens, most of whom are Christians, the war of the war -torn Ukraine? Everyone knows the answer to that. While it lacks the best surface and majesty the old varieties, Trump Imperialism It carries the ugly features of previous repetitions. As before, it comes to power and money, military power and economic pressure (such as customs tariffs), control of lands, ethnic and cultural excellence and completely hypocrisy. It causes a stir at home. Each aspect of foreign policy affects.

Trump may not be active in killing and expelling the indigenous people in Ukraine, but he is doing his best to steal them from their right. In a period of negotiation, it wanders Mineral wealth in Ukraine. Now he wants nuclear power plants as well. This is not related to peace. It is about earning money. In Gaza, Trump chooses the bones before the victim’s death. The basic legal aspects are abandoned, not to mention humanity. Regardless of Israel Genocide They killed about 50,000 Palestinians. He wants the drug for free, and expels the remaining owners alive, so that it can build a luxury resort. Welcome to Rafah Riviera, Nakba-on-THE-THE-MED.

Trump and his advisors imagine Three new great power blocksThe United States, Russia and China are united in ignoring the Charter of the United Nations, International Law, Human Rights and Representation as they like in self -influence. In this attached era, Russia is a profitable commercial partner while European and Asian allies must defend themselves. As always, developing countries are exploited for their resources. To Manga George Canning, the ancient world is prey to the new.

In the broader Middle East, Trump is unlimited to falsify the Security, Energy and Investment Alliance in Israel more than to end the Palestinian tragedy. From an important obstacle is Iran, another historical victim of the colonists. At the end of Putin, the suns, Trump asked to help Russia in It contains its ally. Beware of Mulla: There is a whiff of betrayal in the air. Like fatwas with large energy throughout history, Trump chooses easy goals. Greenland and Panama, owned by Danish, embodies the inexpensive type of country, which European empires have scraped in the nineteenth century in Africa. On the contrary, note how quiet abnormal is Trump loudly around China, the most powerful competitor in the twenty -first century in America.

The wars of tariffs aside, its warning indicates the establishment of a future strategy with Beijing. Like Putin, President Xi Jinping Play her cool with Trump yet. These TSARS TSARS shares many common denominators: tyranny, national adGgrandizement, harsh greed. So why is the fighting? The three can be two winners, and the winners go to the spoils. Look, Taiwan, meat in the sandwich of the United States of China.

Imperialism has evolved since the letters of letters, missionaries, and unequal treaties. Absolutely absent is the feeling of the highest call and the noble purpose. The pioneering border men who follow the fate of America were really believed that their values ​​were a valid issue. British colonial officials believed that they had done God (and Queen Victoria). Al -Fateh betrays a few of these delusions. However, Trump throws himself as a merciful and noble peace maker. Will he follow peace in desperate Sudan, Myanmar or the Congo? Will he stop these “terrible wars” too? No, he will not do it. Such places do not appear on the re -drawing maps. There is no money or glory in it. The sharing of this white man’s burden does not extend to the losers.

In the new imperial era, the huge madness waives the rules.
