TRUMP PRESIDENCY: The narcissist in the White House heads for ever more dangerous waters
Trump’s ego-driven, loyalty-first approach has weakened Nato ties, favoured personal allies like Putin, and escalated conflict risks with Iran, threatening economic shocks and fractured partnerships.
Donald Trump's presidency has led to weakened NATO ties, personal alliances with Putin, and escalated conflicts with Iran, posing threats to the US and global economy. In his pursuit of loyalty, he favors subordinates who align with his agenda and dismisses those who do not. Throughout the US midterms, Trump has urged voters to believe the election revolves around him, despite his approval rating hovering around 33-36%.

His actions demonstrate a selfish perspective, where relationships revolve around his own persona and personal ties.
