With Trump back in the Whitehouse, the scariest and the most thrilling rollercoaster ride has begun not just for America, but for the rest of the world.
You don’t have to like Trump or agree with him, what is certain is that you will not be able to ignore him. The historical metrics of measuring what is possible or not,no longer apply. Trump does not operate in the sphere of global political or diplomatic norms, he operates on his own terms. Whether those are right, or not, makes no difference, since for each of his actions, there are multiple on-going actions, reactions and outcomes. For most people using traditional norms of assessing success and failure, they will get it wrong every time. Trump refuses to be bound by rules set by the so-called establishment. Those rules were created to trap not just people, but nations into a submissive role.
China and Russia don’t abide by those traditional rules. Terrorists and extremists don’t abide by those traditional rules. So why is it that so many in the west still think that we should all abide by rules that were created to entrap us physically as well as mentally?
India having been enslaved for hundreds of years became weak in mind, spirit and in its very substance. Even after gaining independence, the very core of India and Indians remained subservient. It took PM Modi in 2014 to kick start a rebellion against this mindset that was eating away at the body of the nation from within. After a decade we can see the first fruits of this change with people at the grassroots beginning to believe in themselves, and in their nation as a potential world leader. India still has a long way to go, but what is important is for Indians to ensure they elect a government and a leadership that will keep this momentum of change on the fast track. India does not need to live by the rules of the imperial masters. Its heritage of dharmic democracy of thousands of years needs to be revived to its full glory. India being on the road to becoming Bharat Varsh is the answer to the madness of the west. It will also be the answer to nations like China and Russia.
To take a few cricketing metaphors, Trump has been bowling yorkers and googlies like there is no tomorrow. And he has been smashing fours and sixes like confetti. Can this continue? Yes, that’s his nature. It does not mean he will be successful with everything he does, because that is not his game. Trump is a transactional President. For him if one of his initiatives does not work, he’ll just put it to one side and will be on the next thing without any downside. For him, losses are part of him winning big when and where it matters. It’s part of his strategy.
He has got the establishment and the bureaucrats in America running ragged. He has got leaders of Europe on a panic mode 24/7. And he dares to state many truths that most leaders shy away from lest it looks bad. He does not care for such sentiments. He called out Zelensky, and rightly so. It does not mean Russia are right, or that Putin is right. What it means is that on both sides there are deficiencies in leadership. And let’s face it, if Ukraine does not want to become Gaza, it will have to compromise. Anyone who thinks they can defeat Russia is living in cloud cuckoo land.
Storm Trump is good for those with commonsense. For us, let’s sit back and enjoy the madness unfolding. We will see the lunatics on the left, the wokery brigade, the diversity fake merchants, the gender ignorant buffoons, the unelected civil ‘servants’ acting like emperors, and the rogue nations all quake as they see their infrastructure of entrapment and enslavement being shaken to its very roots.
This time round Storm Trump is powered by high energy Musk batteries. He has given boost by bringing a huge magnifying glass to expose the parasites feeding their vampire stomachs on the blood of the nation. Musk might seem mad, but don’t confuse that with his genius. With any genius, sometimes mere mortals like us need time to figure out what his end game might be. Musk is often 10 steps, if not more, ahead of most people.Will he succeed? Who knows, but I know I have more confidence in his ability, than that of most governments around the world.
The biggest mistake Trump and Musk can make is to stretch that elasticity of public tolerance a tad too far. I am all for pushing everything to the limit, but in so doing, their challenge will be not to break that elastic and lose the plot.
We live in interesting times. On the world stage, it’s time for India and PM Modi to flex the power of 1.3 billion.
