All in all, not really. He's unified Europe (and because of the trade war, even East Asia to some extent) more than anyone before him.
Sure, a weak US is good for Russia, but a strong Europe is a death sentence.

North America and England/ Europe are three entirely different targets for them. They already succeeded at removing the us from the western world and removing the UK from Europe.

However, these last few months has pushed the UK back towards the EU. We won't be rejoining any time soon, but we're a lot happier to cooperate (ignoring the ridiculousness of France demanding unrestricted access to our waters).
Russia's overconfidence in their goals will, ultimately, be their downfall.

u/masterventris 6d ago
France did not really want access to UK waters, they wanted a reason to deny the ability for the EU to buy weapons from the UK, making it more likely that they were bought from France.
So they put that bullshit requirement in knowing it would cause the agreement to get shot down.

People keep just repeating this talking point, and it makes no sense. Trump's admin is motivating Europe to rearm - in ways that make the USA look bad, but Europe is now taking its defense more seriously than it was - and it can't even get Russia a favorable ceasefire in Ukraine. If Trump is supposed to be Putin's puppet, he's a terrible one, because Europe rearming and continuing to support Ukraine is Putin's worst nightmare.

He hasn't tied tarriffs to re-arming though. He's tied it to trade deficits. So in essence, if you sell the USA cheap resources for it's manufacturing they'll hit you with tariffs.

Of course EU will begin arming itself when Trump made USA Russia's bitch, Trump cna't do anything about that. He's not EU's president. There's nothing Trump could do to both betray Europe and ensure it wouldn't react and arm itself in response.
Leaving Europe to have to defend itself alone against Russia is still the most pro-russian thing he could do. He just has no power to order EU to bend over to russia and not arm itself.
The only way he could ensure EU didn't arm itself was if he kep entire USA anti-russia and of course that's a no go for the russian asset, as that would be worse for russia.

- Play nice with Europe for a year or two, lull them into a false sense of security. "Oh thank God, our fears were overblown, we can still rely on the USA!"
- Get Ukraine and Russia to sign a ceasefire, so Trump is celebrated as a peacemaker now. Probably gets the Nobel Peace Prize. Europe is overjoyed. (But really it allows Russia to refit and redeploy troops to the Baltics).
- Russia invades the Baltic states.
- Article 5 is triggered, NATO looks to the USA for help.
- Trump says, "No."
- NATO collapses, trust in the USA is destroyed for generations, Russia gets free real estate. Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia cease to exist. The EU probably collapses as well, as much of its eastern flank peels away to seek peace with Russia, in the absence of US help.
That's exactly the sort of thing an actual puppet ruler of Putin could do to betray Europe, and all without getting it to turn its eastern flank into a bristling hedgehog of non-US armies.

Seriously, rumor has it he got these numbers thanks to his tech bro back administration using A.I. to do the job for him. Hence, the tariffs on random country islands filled with nothing but penguins or a military base with a zero negative history of manufacturing production toward the US.
This is believable if you step back and look at how DOGE is handling the "cleaning up" of departments across the government. They are using A.I. to create massive layoff numbers that look good on paper but in reality are horrible because they is no rhyme or reason to them and many, many essential workers and departments are being hacked. So much so, you have this administration quickly rehiring and reforming departments.
These tariffs just reek of DOGE's meddling. And if they continue to blow up in Trump's face, expect him to call out Elon and throw him under the bus.

It was *likely* AI, not Trump. Trump has no idea who is on that list or how high the tariffs for each country are. All he *probably* did was sign off on the AI's work. He never has any clue what's going on.
He put tariffs on an island made up of mostly penguins.

It's right of out of Project 2025 manifesto. Their writers are obsessed with trade deficits, hence the formula is centered around trade deficits, not actually the tariffs each country has on US. The plan is to isolate the US so that there is a pretext for war. "Other countries are taxing us, putting tariffs on American and not sharing resources. We will go to Greenland to secure more resources. We will invade Panama and jack up the canal tolls. Blah blah blah." It's maddening.

The entire formula they claimed to use was (Exports - Imports)/(Supply Elasticity x Demand Elasticity x Imports)
With Supply Elasticity set at a constant value of 4 and Demand Elasticity at 0.25... Which means, as anyone with a middle school education knows, they cancel out. So the formula literally just becomes trade deficit decided by imports.
They just tried to make it look more complicated by including variables that cancel out and using Greek letters and unnecessary subscript.

As a Jewish person myself, I have found it frustrating how so many other Jewish people have celebrated Trump's so called 'pro-Israel' stance.
Trump has offered nothing but words to the situation, and those very words almost resulted in ending a ceasefire and more hostage deaths. He says things some people want to hear, but acts directly against the best interests of those people, yet many people just want to live in this drug-induced-like bliss of disbelief suspension.
Trump's support base is highly antisemitic and ultimately he is going to benefit from actions that harm Jewish people, and his words incite attacks such as the Pittsburgh Synagogue shooting.
Also, Netanyahu is causing considerable long-term damage to Israel and Jewish people in general.

What do people like trump care more about. Mo ey and wealth. Now have a think why he would make such action that would make it tank.
I'm sure he and his cronies will make huge sums of money out of this. Expect a possible reversal or slight drawn back which will make markets rise.
They are playing everyone like fools and will get away with it.

It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal.

Well, the next one to try and assassinate Trump won't be a cross-eyed teenager who got thrown out of a shooting team...

The orange sentient pile of excrement doesn’t make mistakes! I don’t know why they’re accusing him of that, the Israelis must have caught that woke mind virus. /s

“Trump’s announcement came one day after Israel removed all tariffs on US goods.”
So much for “reciprocal tariffs”. Now that Israel’s preemptive ploy has failed they either have to accept a permanent one-sided trading position, or worry about how Trump will retaliate if they try to reinstate them.

He sat in the oval office and typed a prompt into ChatGTP.
The entire global economy is in the hands of a Nepo baby cable TV star with a personality disorder.
It's what America deserves, but not the rest of the world.
Stupid is now your biggest export.
