If you push on one point on a block of jello, it will deform on opposite sides and around where you are pushing,

this is what will happen as a result of trump pushing on the global system, it will react in opposite and other schemes.

It's not good for the U.S., but it might be really good for the western system.

I say this not because I support trump (FSS I DO NOT!!!) but I predict the global system will respond like an antibody. It might take time, but it will respond. Just like in WW2...

unfortunately, a lot of people and families will be harmed or destroyed in the process.
