As an erratic president imposes his international doctrine, countries are forging more stable alliances. His US will be weaker, not strongerOne of the ways in which Donald Trump’s regime obscures and distracts is by drawing our eyes constantly to the US – its raw power to intimidate and bully other nations, and its vast financial heft in wielding soft power through organisations such as USAid.But at the same time as Trump projects his agenda on to the world stage, he is withdrawing the US from the world and reducing its role to its bare bones – an imperial power that blatantly picks and chooses how to engage based on its alliances and interests.

The article also highlights the impact of globalization on the US's ability to project its power and influence, and notes that the rise of other nations and arrangements is rewriting the global order." ] ], "content": "nostr:nprofile1qyd8wumn8ghj7ctjw35kxmr9wvhxcctev4erxtnwv4mhxqpq2qj8ax6yyu2udvjcpulpdnet77avt0ypz0tecyygevehtlxzkcrqtkfw9w\nhttps://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/125c35ce6222fd44148fcd9a26a530878ec680b6/19_242_2929_1759/master/2929.jpg?width=140\u0026quality=85\u0026auto=format\u0026fit=max\u0026s=20951cfb140c081eaab71897998d62f0\nAs an erratic president imposes his international doctrine, countries are forging more stable alliances.
