The world says an effective goodbye to America [View all]

It’s becoming increasingly clear — after Donald Trump’s embarrassingly narcissistic, not to mention insulting, performance before an international economic and cultural elite at the annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland — that the United States can no longer be trusted.

In the minds of many of America’s former allies, the MAGA slogan has turned from “Make America Great Again” to “Make America Go Away.” Trump’s inexplicable longing to personally own Greenland has done even more to convince the world public at large that the American president has a screw loose.

Trump may eventually either slip into full-blown dementia or opt for a legally and financially cushioned retirement, but with the US presidency changing every four years, Europeans are acutely aware that there’s no guarantee that a future president — elected four, eight, or 20 years from now — won’t be just as unpredictably crazy and destructive as Trump. The US, in short, can no longer be relied on for either leadership or security.

Conclusion: With America’s credibility in the slag heap, it’s better not to count on America at all.
