Trumpianism: How the West Morally Hollowed Out Its Own Global Order

• The West, once a beacon of progressivism and a rules-based global order, is accused of morally hollowing out its own system.
• Post-WWII institutions like the UN and World Bank aimed to foster peace and equitable international relations, improving upon past eras.
• Optimism post-Cold War about liberal democracy's unchallenged dominance faded as Western standards eroded in practice.
• Brexit, Wokeism, and Donald Trump's 'neo-imperialism' are cited as examples of this erosion, challenging core liberal principles.
• America's actions in Venezuela, framed as 'law-enforcement,' expose a double standard when compared to Russia's 'special military operation' in Ukraine, highlighting Western hypocrisy.

Why It Matters: The West's actions, particularly under Trump, reveal a moral hypocrisy undermining the global order it built.
