The author assessed that Donald Trump's recent decisions might have been aimed at rebuilding Republican support before the Congress elections on November 3. He pointed to the promise of a $5,000 payout, Trump's change of stance on mail-in voting, and the energy agreement with Vladimir Putin, which was purportedly meant to help lower fuel prices. According to the author, the supply of Russian oil could have had a minimal impact on prices but serious political consequences. The author wrote that Europe is bearing the costs of sanctions, and Ukraine continues to face Russian aggression, while Trump presented the agreement as a way to combat inflation. He also noted a decline in support for the president and growing social discontent, as well as some Republican politicians publicly distancing themselves from the administration's decisions. According to the author, Trump's actions did not fit into a long-term economic strategy but were aimed at regaining voters and maintaining a Republican majority in Congress. He argued that the president was primarily concerned with his own political survival and the interests of his family and friends. He warned that the security of allies, sanctions, and the international credibility of the USA should not be used to achieve such goals. The author concluded that Trump should not be trusted or relied upon for long-term agreements. In his view, cooperation with him should be limited to the bare minimum, as his position could change depending on current political interests. #Trump #Polityka #Geopolityka (translated)
