Donald Trump’s bruising return to the White House has sent many longtime foreign allies scrambling to get their distance, and according to a new piece from The Atlantic, that distance will last long after Trump is gone.
Trump’s second term as president has been marked by notable and widespread disrespect toward nations once seen as close U.S. allies. Between his attempts to level massive tariffs against nearly every nation in the world and his frequent breaches of diplomatic norms, Trump has created a hostile global environment in which allies no longer feel safe trusting in the stability of the U.S.
In a new piece for The Atlantic on Tuesday, staff writer Vivian Salama argued that this new dynamic, in which the nations of the world are working to establish a safe distance from the U.S., is bound to become the new normal for years to come, even after Trump leaves office and is potentially replaced by a more traditional, dependable administration.


I hope you are wrong I don’t want a terrorist state as an ally
lol don’t be so emotional
Being responsible of millions of death make you a terrorist state
Which millions of deaths are you referring to
Vietnam victims
Libya victims
Syria victims
Iran victims
Afghanistan victims
Cuba victims
Palestine victims
You’re talking about deaths from war? In that case all your allies are terrorists buddy you’re screwed.
Also you’re Canadian which means your country too
I am talking about imperialism wars and intervention that led to millions of deaths. No other country did that level of evilness
I can think of several…
And what Canada lacks in its own wars of imperialism it makes up for in war crimes lol
There was empires who did worse but those no longer exist and was separated into new countries. In term of current states post world war 2 the usa is the worse.
When the last time Canada initiated a war in the last few decades? The worst things we did is helping indirectly in the usa in their wars of aggression. That’s why we should decouple from the usa
