      1. There are individual Trump foreign policy moves that are good (i.e. working with China on Korea) but taken as whole? Incoherence

      2. Here's a summary of the incoherence of Trump policy on just one issue (North Korea) in one day:https://twitter.com/HeerJeet/status/857792579437436928 …

      3. The thing we have to wrap our heads around is that America, long the guaranteer of international order, is now a destabilizing force.

      4. Of course, "the adults" (the generals, Javinka) are supposed to have reigned in Trump's destabilizing tendencies. But that's not so.

      5. The rise of "the adults" has just created a new power center carrying out policies often at variance with Trump. That's not stability!

      6. It's true that aspects of USA being a destabilizing global force predate Trump: G.W. Bush policy of regime change in Middle East.

      7. But earlier American destabilizing efforts had some strategic rational. Trump is like "let's throw cards in air & see where the land"

          8. Best case scenario is other countries (as China & Mexico already have) conclude Trump is a blowhard & disregard his words.

          9. In that best case scenario, American soft power rapidly declines & other nations step up to plate to maintain international order.

          disagree with this. He thinks he's being strategically ambiguous. But the act is wearing thin and forcing him into corners

          Rational always been world-wide political & financial domination. Presence of an immature fool has not changed that - just more farcical
