White House spirals as allies ignore Trump's threats: report

President Donald Trump's Iran struggle revealed that the world no longer fears American threats, with traditional allies actively forming new partnerships and sidelining the U.S. as a diplomatic partner.

Politico's Nahal Toosi argues Trump and his aides operate as if others are "non-player characters in a video game," believing America can use threats and military action to bend other capitals to its will. However, the administration is "not adjusting well" to a changed world.

Former Council on Foreign Relations President Richard Haass noted that Trump shows no signs of abandoning bullying tactics.

Senior European diplomats criticize Trump for being surrounded by "yes" people, lacking understanding of diplomatic reciprocity. Trump's tariffs accelerate nations' divorcement from the U.S., reducing economic reliance.

Experts warn that Trump treats geopolitical conflicts as real estate deals, misunderstanding that identity, politics, and survival drive conflicts beyond material calculations.
