The Wall Street Journal seems to have found itself in a mighty pickle, blindsided by its own bias when it comes to covering Donald Trump with any semblance of neutrality. One might even say they’ve missed the ball entirely on what could have been the biggest home run of the year. Instead of a banner headline, more subdued coverage of economic achievements was noted. But the reality is, it’s a triumph not often heralded in the pages of business news.
Of course, the Journal also gave a lukewarm reception to notable moments in international diplomacy. What should have been framed as a triumph was instead met with a more nuanced view. It seems they’ve opted to see through the lens of critical observation, rather than photograph the confetti of celebration.
Let’s not overlook the broader diplomatic dances that were less prominently featured in Journal coverage. Here’s a man carving a new chapter in international relations, hammering out deals and redefining trade with the bold stroke of tariffs—not a trade war, mind you, but negotiation. His words were aimed at coaxing a reluctant region into the modern age, all without the hand-holding of Western intervention.
In Trump’s vision, we aren’t here to decorate others with the robes of democracy. Instead, he recognizes the monumental missteps of past interventionists who stumbled through foreign lands, dictating terms with clueless abandon. Trump’s plan for military strength ensures peace, but it’s peace with a new frock – sleek, strategic, and bearing zero resemblance to the interventionist glamour of yesteryear. His bold strategy says to the world: we’ll look after our own, thank you very much, but we’re open for responsible partnership.
In the end, Trump’s approach to globalism is one of business acumen, not empire building. It’s about competing within our sandbox, cooperating without reshuffling cultures. America’s path forward, under Trump’s blueprint, looks to reinforce its Midwest roots while leaning on mutual respect with the rest of the globe. It’s a shift in gears for globalists who once turned a deaf ear to the heartland’s rusty cry. Embrace the change, as it’s a world where nations, like businesses, thrive on both rivalry and collaboration.
