How President Donald Trump has reset the Global world order and made America Great again by Graham Healy Sun 12/7/26 Without Doubt President Trump is the greatest USA president ever in that he has 1) Reset the Global order from globalism which destroyes a sovereign economy and is really like communism reducing a nation to a communist state breaking down national patriotism and turning all countries into one big melting pot controled by big business entities and third world countries rise in power like never before like China.

2)Changing the transactional basis between USA and other countries to transactional based on WIN/WIN business deals (The art of the deal) rather then the USA throwing money at the problem , Trump has made other countries pay their fair share of every business transaction (which is simply good business sense ) 3) Dismantling the Climate scam and renewables ponzie schemes set up by the elites to milk countries of finances and destroy their base power grids with a complete fantacy that man can change global warming and the weather by reducing carbon dioxide which plants actually breathe to grow and expell oxygen back into the atmosphere through photosynthesis (destroying the natural farmland and forrest with windmills and taxic solar panels ) devistating wildlife in the process . https://www.riseupaustraliabrisbane2025.com/post/climate-change-communism https://www.riseupaustraliabrisbane2025.com/post/the-climate-scam-department-must-be-shut-down 4)Resetting the WOKE agenda and insane transgender self destruction agendas back to basic family values and Judeo-Christian values 5) resetting the USA economy to lower taxes higher wages and promotion of local and national business to increase the national cash flow and run the USA like a business rather then a communist state where eventually everbody becomes poor as the tax burdens increase and reduces the middle class to the poverty dependant class through debt and taxes.

6) stoped mass illegal migration

7) the complete opposite of Democrates mentality who simply put were and still are destroying USA from within , Trump has stopped that big time and as a result ensured a bright future for all Americans. https://www.riseupaustraliabrisbane2025.com/post/the-enemy-within-western-society-islam-lgbtq-globasism-socialism-communism In my opinion Australia has to follow Trumps Lead .

Below is a breakdown of Trumps achievenemts and policies in more detail . **Trump's Recalibration of the Global World Order**

Donald Trump has pursued an **"America First"** doctrine that deliberately disrupts the post-World War II liberal international order—characterized by multilateral institutions (NATO, WTO, Paris Accord), free trade globalization, and U.S. as a reliable security guarantor. Instead of maintaining the status quo of interdependence, Trump has reset the world stage toward **transactional realism**, bilateral deals, economic nationalism, and raw power leverage.

### Key Ways Trump Has Reset the Global Stage

- **Tariffs and Trade Wars as Primary Tools**: Imposed broad tariffs (first and second terms) on China, allies (Canada, Mexico, EU), and others. This weaponized trade to force concessions, reduce deficits, and encourage reshoring—shifting from "globalization" to "friend-shoring" or U.S. self-reliance. Accelerated partial decoupling from China.

- **Alliances and Burden-Sharing**: Pressured NATO/European allies for higher defense spending; treated alliances transactionally rather than altruistic. Reduced multilateral commitments (e.g., withdrawals from Paris Accord, WHO). Second term: More aggressive actions in Middle East (Iran strikes), Western Hemisphere (Venezuela), and Indo-Pacific deterrence vs. China.

- **Sovereignty Over Interdependence**: Promoted U.S. energy dominance (exports), manufacturing revival, and supply chain security. Challenged China's economic rise by restricting tech/investment and forcing companies to diversify away from China/India reliance.

- **New Doctrines**: Revived/extended Monroe Doctrine ("Donroe") for the Americas; emphasized hard power and deals over soft power/institutions. This has created volatility—some see chaos and isolation, others a necessary correction to free-riding and over-globalization. By 2026, it has forced realignments: higher ally spending, trade rerouting, and a more multipolar but U.S.-centric power dynamic.

The result: A shift from rules-based liberal order to interest-based, sovereign competition. Supporters credit it with restoring U.S. leverage; critics cite higher costs, strained alliances, and instability.

### Summary Table: Trump's Reset of World Agenda & U.S. Economic Sovereignty

|--------------------------------|---------------------------------------------|-----

--------------------------------|-------------------------------------|

| **Global Order/Agenda** | Multilateralism, free trade globalization, U.S. as "indispensable nation" subsidizing allies | America First transactionalism; tariffs as leverage; bilateral deals; reduced multilateralism | Reset to realist competition; forced allies to contribute; accelerated de-risking from China |

| **Dependence on China/India** | Heavy supply chain reliance; large trade deficits; offshoring | Tariffs, export controls, reshoring incentives; partial decoupling | Reduced vulnerability; friend-shoring; U.S. leverage increased |

| **Effective/Overall Taxes** | Higher regulatory/tax burden; globalist trade | Corporate cuts + tariffs (effective tax on imports); revenue from tariffs ~$100B+/year | Shifted burden to foreign producers; encouraged U.S. production |

| **Manufacturing/Industrial Output** | Declining share; job losses to Asia (~2009-2016) | Pre-COVID growth + second term push; some reshoring (e.g., chips, steel); mixed jobs data (gains then losses amid tariffs) | Toward sovereignty: Higher U.S. industrial income share, energy exports, reduced import dependence |

| **Trade Deficit/Deficits** | Chronic large deficits with China (~$300B+ annually) | Reduced China deficit somewhat; overall deficits persist; energy exporter | Less dependent on foreign manufacturing; focus on domestic production |

**Notes on Data**:

- **Taxes**: The 2017 corporate rate cut was a major pro-business shift. Tariffs function as import taxes (raising revenue but also costs for U.S. consumers/firms). Industrial income/output saw gains in Trump's first term pre-COVID, with ongoing policy pushes for sovereignty (e.g., CHIPS Act continuity + tariffs). Manufacturing jobs and output have been volatile—strong pre-2020, mixed later due to tariffs, COVID, and global factors.

- **Sovereignty Turnaround**: Emphasis on domestic production, supply chain security, and reducing reliance on adversarial/foreign supply (China especially). Not full self-sufficiency, but a clear pivot from hyper-globalization. Results are debated: Some reshoring success in key sectors; higher short-term costs acknowledged.

Trump's approach has literally reset expectations on the world stage—from predictable U.S. globalism to unpredictable, self-interested power politics—prioritizing American industrial and economic sovereignty. Long-term effects (e.g., new alliances, inflation impacts, or renewed U.S. strength) continue unfolding. _________________________________________________

**Donald Trump and Ronald Reagan** are often compared as transformative Republican presidents who challenged the status quo, appealed to working-class voters, and pursued "peace through strength" foreign policies. Both are icons to many conservatives, but they operated in different eras with distinct styles, results, and contexts. Reagan (1981–1989) is frequently ranked among the greatest modern presidents; Trump (2017–2021 and 2025–present) remains highly polarizing. Here's a structured comparison.

### Background and Personal Style

- **Reagan**: Former actor, California governor, optimistic "Great Communicator." Warm, folksy, ideological conservative with Hollywood polish. Emphasized American exceptionalism, "shining city on a hill," and unity against communism.

- **Trump**: Businessman, reality TV star, New York outsider. Blunt, combative, populist style via rallies and social media. Focuses on "America First," grievance against elites, and transactional deal-making. More disruptive and norm-breaking than Reagan's institutional approach.

Reagan projected sunny optimism; Trump thrives on confrontation and loyalty tests.

### Economic Policies ("Reaganomics" vs. Trump Economics)

**Similarities**:

- Both cut taxes significantly (Reagan's 1981 Economic Recovery Tax Act: ~25% across-the-board; Trump's 2017 TCJA: corporate rate from 35% to 21%, individual cuts).

- Deregulation to spur growth and business.

- Defense spending increases.

- Both faced recessions early (Reagan 1981–82; Trump COVID-19) followed by recoveries.

**Differences**:

- **Reagan**: Emphasized supply-side economics, fought inflation (from 13.5% to ~4%), achieved strong growth and low unemployment by late 1980s. Deficits ballooned due to tax cuts + military buildup (he later raised some taxes). More traditional conservative on spending restraint rhetoric (though mixed results).

- **Trump**: Pre-COVID boom with low unemployment, wage growth for lower earners, energy dominance. Post-2020 recovery strong. Second term emphasizes tariffs (protectionist, unlike Reagan's freer trade leanings), continued tax focus, and deal-making. Critics note higher deficits/debt under both, but Trump's approach is more nationalist/populist (tariffs as leverage) than pure supply-side.

Reagan's era tamed stagflation; Trump's emphasized trade imbalances and reshoring.

### Foreign Policy

**Similarities**:

- "Peace through strength": Rebuilt military, confronted adversaries.

- Anti-communism/anti-authoritarian: Reagan vs. Soviet Union ("evil empire"); Trump vs. China, Iran, etc.

- No new major U.S.-led ground wars started by Reagan; Trump often highlighted the same (first term).

**Differences**:

- **Reagan**: Cold War victory narrative—arms buildup, support for mujahideen/contras, INF Treaty, and eventual Soviet collapse (partly credited to his policies). Optimistic engagement with Gorbachev.

- **Trump**: Transactional—Abraham Accords (first term), pressure on NATO allies for spending, China tariffs/Phase One deal, maximum pressure on Iran. Second term (2025–26): More aggressive (Iran strikes/regime efforts, Venezuela actions, tariffs on allies, Ukraine negotiations with Russia concessions). Less ideological globalism, more bilateral leverage and skepticism of multilateral institutions.

Reagan helped end the Cold War; Trump's focus is great-power competition in a multipolar world.

### Domestic and Social Issues

- **Similarities**: Conservative judges (Reagan: Scalia, etc.; Trump: three SCOTUS justices shifting court rightward), pro-life rhetoric, tax cuts benefiting growth.

- **Differences**:

- Immigration: Reagan signed 1986 amnesty (3 million+); Trump emphasizes border security, deportations, wall.

- Government size: Reagan talked small government but grew federal workforce; Trump more disruptive to bureaucracy (e.g., Schedule F attempts).

- Style on culture: Reagan optimistic; Trump combative on "woke" issues, media, elections.

Both appealed to working-class "Reagan Democrats"/Trump voters shifting from Democrats.

### Leadership, Legacy, and Criticisms

- **Achievements**: Reagan — economic recovery, Cold War pressure, conservative realignment. Trump — judicial overhaul, Middle East deals, pre-COVID economy, challenging globalism.

- **Criticisms**: Reagan — Iran-Contra, deficits, AIDS response, inequality rise. Trump — Jan. 6/2020 election, high turnover, tariffs' costs, polarization. Both accused of deficits and divisive rhetoric (Reagan's "welfare queen"; Trump's stronger identity politics).

- **Temperament**: Reagan respected institutions more; Trump tests norms aggressively. Republicans often rank both highly, with debate over "best recent."

**Bottom line**: Reagan was the optimistic ideological architect of modern conservatism during the Cold War's end. Trump is the combative populist enforcer in a post-Cold War, globalization-skeptical era—building on some Reagan themes (taxes, strength, anti-elite) but with a harder nationalist edge, tariffs, and personal disruption. Trump echoes Reagan's outsider appeal and tax/deregulation instincts but diverges on trade, immigration, and institutional deference. Both reshaped the GOP and are credited by supporters with restoring American confidence against decline. Historians' views differ sharply along partisan lines.

_____________________________________________ **Donald Trump's global track record** is polarizing, as expected for a disruptive "America First" leader who prioritizes U.S. leverage, deals, and deterrence over traditional multilateral institutions. Assessments vary sharply by source—supporters highlight pragmatic wins and avoided endless wars; critics point to alliances strained, norms broken, and volatility. Here's a balanced overview based on key facts from his first term (2017-2021) and ongoing second term (2025-2026).

### First Term Highlights (2017-2021)

- **Middle East**: Brokered the **Abraham Accords** (normalization between Israel and several Arab states: UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, Morocco)—a major diplomatic shift bypassing the Palestinian issue. Oversaw the territorial defeat of ISIS caliphate (with coalition support). Moved U.S. embassy to Jerusalem; maximum pressure campaign on Iran via sanctions (economy hit hard, but nuclear advances continued). No new major U.S. wars started.

- **China**: Launched trade war with tariffs to address imbalances, IP theft, and forced tech transfers. Phase One deal secured some purchases, but rivalry intensified.

- **Europe/NATO**: Pressured allies to increase defense spending (NATO spending rose pre-COVID). Skeptical of multilateral pacts—pulled out of Paris Climate Accord, TPP, Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA).

- **Elsewhere**: Engaged North Korea's Kim Jong-un (summits, but denuclearization stalled). Drew down troops in Afghanistan/Syria (mixed results). Focused on countering radical Islamic terrorism.

- **Overall**: "No new wars" record, energy exports boosted U.S. leverage, emphasis on bilateral deals over global bodies. Global opinion of U.S. dipped in polls, but deterrence arguably strengthened in some theaters.

### Second Term (2025-2026, as of mid-2026)

More assertive and transactional:

- **Iran/Middle East**: Joint U.S.-Israel strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and broader military action aimed at regime change (February 2026 escalation). Strong pro-Israel stance, including Gaza proposals (relocation ideas, economic zone). Claims of ending conflicts or shifting dynamics.

- **Ukraine/Russia**: Pushed for negotiated end to the war with concessions to Russia; criticized Ukraine's role. Sought realignment with Putin while maintaining pressure elsewhere.

- **China/Taiwan/Indo-Pacific**: Continued tariffs/trade war. Deployed assets to deter China near Taiwan (Luzon Strait). Allies urged to boost spending.

- **Western Hemisphere**: Aggressive moves like capturing Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, Panama Canal rhetoric, tariffs on Canada/Mexico, interest in Greenland. Framed as Monroe Doctrine revival ("Donroe Doctrine").

- **NATO/Europe**: Heavy burden-sharing demands; threats of tariffs. Seen as isolationist toward Europe while focusing on great-power competition.

- **Broader**: Sweeping tariffs as foreign policy tool, reduced foreign aid/multilateral commitments, military rebuilding. Claims of historic deals, but polls show low global confidence (e.g., Pew data: disapproval on Iran, tariffs, etc.).

**Criticisms**: Chaos, ally alienation, undermining post-WWII order, economic fallout from tariffs, risks of escalation (e.g., Iran war). **Defenses**: Restored deterrence, forced freeriding allies to contribute, prioritized U.S. interests in a multipolar world, achieved tangible pressure on adversaries.

Results depend on metrics: short-term leverage vs. long-term alliances; deal-making vs. institutional stability. U.S. hard power remains central.

### Trump as a Modern Roman General

Imagine Trump as a 21st-century **Julius Caesar** or **Pompey the Great**—charismatic, populist commanders who rose outside (or against) the decaying republican elite, used spectacle and direct appeals to the masses (or legions/voters), cut through bureaucracy with decisive (sometimes ruthless) action, and expanded influence through a mix of conquest, alliances, and self-promotion.

- **Like Caesar**: Crossed the "Rubicon" of norms—disrupting the post-1945 liberal international order (multilateral treaties, endless commitments) much as Caesar challenged the Senate's oligarchy. Master of propaganda and loyalty (Truth Social rallies parallel Caesar's public image and veteran support). Bold crossings: tariffs as economic legions, direct leader-to-leader deals (Abraham Accords like client-king arrangements), willingness to use force for regime pressure (Iran echoes Gallic campaigns). Populist base against "globalist" establishment mirrors Caesar vs. optimates. Both accused of authoritarianism while claiming to restore greatness.

- **Roman general traits**: Pragmatic expansionism over ideology—Trump's "America First" echoes *imperium* focused on Roman (U.S.) glory and security. Deal-maker who rewards loyalty and punishes weakness (NATO spending pressure like tribute/enforcement). Showmanship: triumphalist rhetoric, branding ("big beautiful deals"), and personal stake in outcomes. Risk-taker who bets on strength deterring chaos, akin to generals ending stalemates through audacity.

- **Differences**: Modern constraints (democracy, nukes, media) prevent full conquest. Trump is more transactional merchant-general than pure conqueror—prioritizing economic wins and avoidance of quagmires over permanent occupation (unlike endless Roman provinces). No literal legions, but leverages military/tech superiority. Critics liken him to later flawed figures (Commodus for spectacle), but the general parallel fits his disruptive, results-oriented style better than bureaucratic emperors.

In this analogy, Trump plays the role of a late-republic general trying to "Make Rome (America) Great Again" by shaking up a stagnant system, forging new client states/deals, and projecting strength to rivals—often gloriously messy, with loyal followers and bitter foes. History's verdict on such figures is rarely neutral.
