I just don’t understand what the goal here is. It seems like everything this administration does is with the purpose of offending or alienating our allies. Even if you believe in the whole “America First,” how could that possibly be achieved by pushing away every other country except for maybe Russia or China.
My theory is that there is no goal. It’s just bullying for the sake of bullying.
Putin holds the US responsible for the collapse of the Soviet Union, and wants to see the US collapse. How would you collapse the US? You’d divide the country against each other so neither side (red/blue, both politicians and civilians] trusted the other. You’d alienate all their allies. You’d make the people distrustful of experts, of science, of news media. You’d sow distrust of the government, then make the government unstable. You’d destabilize the financial market. It should take a lot of subtle effort at the start, but once there’s momentum it gets a lot easier.
If you look at things from the point of view that Trump is a Russian asset, it makes a lot more sense.

Ah yes, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_Geopolitics
It should be blatantly obvious to everyone by now that it is all in the benefit of trumps boss putin
Russia’s plan was even all laid out in foundations of geopolitics in ‘97. Trump has been for them since 87
