By clinging to American primacy through force and intimidation, Donald Trump is, ironically, undermining US global power. A saboteur trying to subvert US interests from the inside could hardly do better than what he’s accomplished through sheer incompetence.
That Sun Tzu quote “don’t interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake” comes to mind.
The least effort and greatest impact will come from those countries staying quiet and letting Trump keep doing what he’s doing.
“In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity” -Sun Tzu
I’m definitely no military strategist, so I’ll concede that I don’t know what it would really mean to “attack” those bases, especially when I would always rather see that action taken by the people of the countries rather than their governments without their consent. But is there no value to the assault on many fronts? If there was a coordinated endeavor from 25 different countries to weaken and/or remove US military bases from their land all at the same time, couldn’t that split focus enough to actually weaken the US imperial grip?
Sun Tzu and Trump are both artists I guess, but in different areas.
Trump’s “art” mostly involves smearing the walls with shit
