The new world is speedrunning towards a more violent and unsafe place.
I have no words on how ridiculous Trump's trade war in NA is. It serves no geopolitical objective, unless your goal is isolationism, no matter the economic cost.

I'm so sad that The World Next Week by the Council of Foreign Relations ended. One of the best podcasts out there is no more. Anyone has a good alternative with the same balanced view? www.cfr.org/podcasts/wor...
