Ask yourself this. If all those decades of diplomacy and cajoling India were terrific…then why were they able to be undone in a week?

Oh, that's easy. You start out by electing a buffoon president. Then you make sure the supreme court grants him unlimited power and the legislature completely abdicates its responsibilities. Then you fire all the experts and diplomats who have been carefully crafting policies and agreements over decades. Then you insult the prime minister of India by claiming to have imposed a peace agreement with Pakistan, which you never did. Then you capriciously impose a 50% tariff in retaliation for buying oil from Russia, while doing all you can to cater to the whims of the Russian dictator. No, it wasn't done in a week. It was done by seven months of idiocracy followed by Trumpedo's death blow of 50% tariffs.
