Right now, the only certainty about Trump is the uncertainty. From Simplicius at simplicius76.substack.com:
In the wake of Trump’s whirlwind election victory a mad scramble has ensued to both fill positions in his administration as well as from world leaders ingratiating themselves before the grand deal-maker’s return.

Europe in particular is in utter shambles as their sunk-cost failure in Ukraine has exposed feeble European leaders as true naked emperors before their seething populaces. Germany continues to completely unspool before our eyes as France’s Macron issued a temp-gauging panic statement about the need for Europe to become ‘omnivores’ in a world full of ‘carnivores’, lest the decaying continent get left behind for good.
