Trump the Hun?
Remember Attila?
Trump will tell you that he, Trump the Donald, is different—that HE is a LOT better looking . And he doesn’t have a beard — that’s JD Vance.
But…when you think “Trump the Donald” you must think “Empire” which is taking aggressive measures in a distinctly Hunnish war against the World. Take no prisoners — only slaves.
So as of today, the Ukraine is cut off from the supply of American weapons – and probably Europe too.
It’s not because Trump likes the Russians.
It’s because the Ukraine and the Europeans have been insolent. It’s a respect thing,
Attila didn’t like insolence either. If you didn’t give him respect, he cut off something. Trump cuts off stuff too — like money and weapons—which matter more than gonads in Europe (not that they have any!)
Trump’s attempted conquest of North America and Asia
At the same time, Trump is imposing 25% percent tariffs on Mexico and Canada and 10 to 15% tariffs on China. In the case of Canada that is supposed to be because of the non-existent Canadian fentanyl trade and illegal immigrants and trade imbalances that don’t exist either.
In the case of Mexico, it’s something similar. The Mexico are sending poor people to the US to keep what remains of US industry afloat. They will work for nothing and when they get hungry eat Chihuahuas. What if they rape your poodle?
In the case of China, tariff terror is because Chinese industry has overtaken that of the US and also developed new technologies —which the US will end up buying at a premium. More than half of new patents are Chinese.
But hey, if you’re a Hun - the reasons to attempt conquest don’t matter.
The Canadian and Mexicans have responded insolently with tit for tat tariffs that will spur inflation in the US,help beggar the US consumer, also help scupper any chance of re-industrialization, slow technological growth, and probably lead to an economic collapse – which will kill the dollar much faster than a BRICS alternative currency.
Punishment is in order
Europe is also a tariff target.
Attila didn’t do tariffs – just rape and pillage.
Oh? That’s the same? No wonder I failed Economics in high school, OK, OK, so that was Home Economics.
For Attila the cost of conquest was just dead Huns. He didn’t care.
For Americans the cost will be a dead economy.
And a dead empire.
Trump doesn’t care,
Obviously, the empire is not foremost in his mind - just conquest ,.. winning ,
To that end, he has just broken the G7. It used to be a polycule (look that up) . Now it’s a monocule. (just made that up!)
Not a monocle — monocule. If you know what it is, you qualify for a PhD, in Canada, Pornhub Degree.
When only one person gets to do the fucking- and everybody else has to watch, then nobody wants to play. But, at 78, Trump is too old for that kind of things
Wait a sec— I’m 78, too!
Forget what I just said. It is irrelevant. Or, I hope it is.
Fighting Back
The Chinese are cutting off the Americans from rare earths and metals essential to things like missiles and electric cars and hitech vibrators which were mostly used to mix cocktails until now with Mexican tequila likely to get so expensive.
You see how everything connects?
In addition imposing tariffs on agricultural imports will be a huge boost for the Russian and other economies, and of course their own agricultural sector.
Chinese agricultural production is expanding at over 4% a year. US agriculture is declining and Chinese tariffs will accelerate that trend while raising Chinese production levels as much as 2%,
The Canadians are threatening to cut off energy. Their energy is sold below market value to the Americans anyway. The Prime Minister of Ontario said:
Ford warned if tariffs from the U.S. move forward, Canada will respond.
“We keep the lights on in 1.5 million homes and manufacturing in New York, in Michigan and Minnesota. If he wants to destroy our economy and our families, I will shut down the electricity going down to the U.S. and I'm telling you we will do it,” Ford said.
The Mexicans have already banned American GMO products, since the free trade agreement is null and void .
Then there is “immigration reform” ,,,,
Massive deportation of immigrant labor will cost the US … a lot.. It is one thing to put sensible immigration policies in place - quite another to do things reactively,
In my Special Article on Putin, I talk about how Putin plans strategically, with meticulous consideration of all details, always cautious, realistic, pragmatic and taking into account unintended consequences. Hence, the breathtaking advance of Russian civilization, economically and culturally.
It’s called “planning” . Russia does it. China does it,. The US in good Calvinist tradition leaves it to God and the Devil,
Trump...well… he does as Attila did. Attack and damn the consequences.
In 453 AD, Attila married a woman called Ildico and was found dead in the morning with blood from his nose. Nobody knows the cause, Probably too much too booze and hot sex. His empire fell apart a year later.
There is a lesson here. I’m not sure what it is.
What can we do?
Maybe move to Russia or China?

Actually and historically, Attila The Hun, was an intelligent person. He was often open to negotiations and if one offered him enough gold he would leave those people alone.
Much like Alexander The Great, Attila sought submission and tribute. Who didn't back in those days?
I don't believe that Trump has the intelligence of Attila so he will always cut off his nose to spite his face.
