Trump's love affair with Putin was formalized with America's new security strategy that appeases Putin and alienates our longtime allies in Europe.
After the announcement of the new security strategy, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on X: "Dear American friends, Europe is your closest ally, not your problem. And we have common enemies. At least that's how it has been in the last 80 years. We need to stick to this; this is the only reasonable strategy of our common security. Unless something has changed."
Something has changed. The president of the United States is a traitor who has turned the country into a burgeoning fascist state.
A member of the European Parliament, Barry Andrews, publicly stated his concerns that Trump's new strategy supporting right-wing groups throughout Europe, is a clarion call for Europe to wake up.
Europe's leaders are recoiling against the cultural challenges and anti-immigration rhetoric used by Trump, with relations set to worsen as frictions continue over Ukraine.
The fact of the matter is there's an imbalance of power in the 21st-century leaving Europe and NATO without the arms nor the wealth to impel Russia or the US to take peace settlements seriously. The world is watching the US favoring Russia in all of its negotiations to end the war.
It's also telling that Trump has refused to give arms to Ukraine since he slunk into power in his second term. There's a silver lining to this drama, however. NATO minus the US - is managing to frustrate Trump from making a sweetheart deal with Putin. The NATO allies' consistence dedication to this task hasn't been widely publicized for fear of provoking Trump, but it's impossible to miss.
Thus far, the European scramble on Ukraine's behalf has repeatedly managed to hold the line against Trump and Putin. It did so again this week when the Witkoff plan was tweaked before the Putin meeting.
For the record the West has frozen Russian assets, worth $253 billion. The turning point in the war could be if those assets ended up in Kyiv, instead of being returned to Moscow. Either way, NATO could prove to be yesterday's solution to tomorrow's threat.
Trump has reached a fateful fork in the road, where he must decide to choose between Europe and Ukraine on one hand, or Russia on the other. That moment is getting closer than any time since 1945.
This looming tragedy may end up with a new world order consisting of fascist and totalitarian governments if NATO falters and can't hold back the enemies of Democracy.
As it Stands, because Trump is such a wild card no one can accurately predict which way he'll go - but if the present situation continues to deteriorate it looks good for Russia.
