Summary
Trump has threatened 100% tariffs on BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and others) if they pursue de-dollarization efforts, including creating a new currency to challenge the U.S. dollar’s dominance in global trade.
Trump warned these nations could lose access to the U.S. economy.
BRICS members, frustrated by U.S. financial dominance, have explored alternatives, with Russia advocating for a new payment system to bypass sanctions.
Analysts say the dollar’s global reserve status remains secure in the near term despite these challenges.
Working as intended.
All while providing an “obvious” foil for the educationally challenged to pretend that he’s trying his best in good faith, when the destruction of US hegemony is entirely his handler’s goal.
Yep, this will go down in the history books as an incredible feat of non-confrontative “silent” warfare by Putin against the entire West. If there are still history books in the future.
The money and resources Putin spent on Trump have yielded a far far better return than it could have had he spent it on his own military.
