We should worry because the American president is slowly and surely being cornered in his failures, and he is the type of person who can easily turn very ugly, nasty and irrational, instead of reflective and smarter . He could invent any excuse to create a big mess, even if it turns stupid and destructive later, just to cover-up his isolation and policy failures .
Meanwhile it's the entire world stability, security and economic constancy and soundness that could be paying a heavy toll for more major failed adventures by the US. and all only to benefit very few war industries and entities basically .
The Korean supper advertised deal seems to falter, and is already almost a fiasco. The great wall and the whole immigration theatrical scene is embarrassing and coming to ridicule. The relations with traditional allies, neighbors or close to home or across the oceans, is at a historic low, and not improving. All our trading partners in the world are retaliating big time, and together they could be a major damaging force to our economy, manufacturing sector and workers employment .
On the domestic levels, tax cuts practically only benefited a rich class, corporations and Wall Street . And didn't trickle down as promised and publicised, adding to the general malaise. Not to mention the blind hatred of any and all previously instated social benefits, as in medical and social security, student's loans, housing and public schooling and many others.
The president's most loyal appointees in all political domains are nowhere near successful in their creative destruction of the past, be it Obama or even previous administrations . I could say it could all lead to some sort of fascistic reign, as our greatest ally Mr. Netanyahu is ready to declare for Israel, but even that is failing here, and not so original anymore. Most aids are resigning, running away and abandoning ship and its skipper. The investigation into corruption and collusion with Russia is slowly advancing, and it seems they do have things under their sleeve after all .
All this and other failures are very worrisome as the man is not used to acknowledge failure, his temper plus the few hawks around him suggest more defiance against all odds. But what worries many, more than all the preceding is the bad fix America pushed itself in the Middle-East.
We went half way already with Israel's Neo-Cons and extreme right adventurers, we are facing now a serious possibility of total refusal of the Kushner/Netanyahu engineered deal by all Palestinians. we have absolutely lost all positions on the grounds and political credibility, in Syria, Iraq, Libya and we declared bankruptcy.
We did pull out of the Iranian nuclear deal, against the wishes and requests of the entire world, except Israel of course, and now that the world is acting to preserve the deal and keep lifting the sanctions, our Mr. Trump is further badly cornered, his and Netanyahu's only escape against the world seems to be to bomb and start a war with Iran, with all the risks it entails to the region and the world. And that's the seriously worrying part.
Previous dictators throughout history found themselves in similar corners, very few knew how to retreat honorably, and save their people and countries, most went on with suicidal endeavor, burning everything with them .
My usual many thanks to all .
