“The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.”

Sun Tzu

Nobody needs a war more than a politician who is very low in the polls and desperate to get approval, after losing the occasional voter (who has given him the back), the alt right base (that after the Syria and Afghanistan incidents saw him as nothing else than a common Republican) and even the Republican Party (who has finally opted for a Plan B with Mike Pence), Trump is even losing those close to him, unable to control his own team he has turned up to the military to introduce some kind of order into the mess he has created, and the military knows no better solution than war, Trump will end up ironically, with a circle composed only by his family, and some generals, an inept with zero capacity to manage crisis, or diplomacy, Trump is now a political cripple, a total failure for North American democracy, a disgrace for those who thought a politics outsider would done better at the front of the most powerful country on earth. 

Recently at a press conference, when asked about North Korea prowess in developing nuclear warheads of long range, he answered just the way those "antiimperialist" freaks wanted him to respond, for people who believe the USA are the devil´s own kingdom, Trump answer was a god´s gift, as he threatened North Korea if they continue in that direction they will meet “fire and fury like the world has never seen before”, what a big bunch of shit, Trump is even losing the power of menace, and what could be of Trump if he is seen finally like what he really is, a buffoon? Kim Jong Un, another loose cannon with awful hair just like Trump answered in an equally terrifying, but equally inept way, he made the menace of attacking USA 's Guam military base on the Pacific Ocean with a couple of missiles in the middle August (today, I guess), a surrealistic chapter in which a nuclear attack is announced with two weeks of anticipation, one might think, "Why does Kim announces his nuclear attack on public with such anticipation?" What kind of stupid game are these two clowns playing? The answer is more than obvious, Trump is playing his “bad hombre” cards, his macho powerful Putin cartoonish figure, but he is awful at playing that role, you can believe that coming from an ex KGB, but coming from a pampered playboy, it just makes no sense, and the Pyongyang regime? Laughing their ass at the chance of making some serious business, as Kim, looking more like an Austin Power villain instead of a James Bond one, is doing what super villains do, use menaces and asking for money, what Un is doing is simply making a showroom of his weapons in order for the USA to create a negotiation theater”, you can eat nuclear weapons, but you can sell nuclear weapons, like those local disarmament programs in which you handle your grandpa´s guns for some pantry vouchers, Kim´s North Korea, will surely be happy of handling their weapons in exchange for some generous “disarmament agreement” aka money, they will happily handle their guns and Trump will get the chance of bragging about how he negotiated world peace in the middle of a nuclear menace, that´s what mediocre politicians do, create a problem where there wasn’t one, and then doing like they solved it, just look at China, they are not even interested in the whole charade, as long as a military invasion happens, Russia didn’t even cared when Trump dropped bombs in Syria, it´s all pure and unashamedly negotiation, after all, as Trump said, Un is a “smart cookie”.    

But when you open your wallet to appease some revolting ones, others see the chance, and start revolting too, and again, if you aren’t smart enough, you end up opening your wallet once more, and when those guys detect that you are nothing more than a joke, and your menacing statements are nothing, it’s time to set a new stage, and a new theater play, this time, in Venezuela, again, after Trump´s statement about considering a military intervention in Venezuela, Castro Boy Nicolás Maduro immediately reacted, saw the chance to display his “antiimperialist rhetoric” too, a big one between phony nationalists, and also threatened the USA, via his son, in a very clumsy way, of “taking their guns to New York, and taking over the White House”, the Maduros are another “socialist dynasty”, perhaps they wish to create a dynasty like the Kims in NK, surely they are only the puppets of a military elite behind them whom will not miss the chance to handle them to the USA governments if things get too rough, but in the mid time, again Trump losses at home, his State Secretary Rex Tillerson is using diplomacy to mend the mess his clumsy boss has provoked in Asia, while Vice President Mike Pence is also doing it in South America, a contradictory action that once more confirms the fact that Trump is uncappable of leading his country, of acting properly in the middle of global crisis and raising awareness of how dangerous and unnecessary he is for the USA.
