The Entire Wall Street Journal Editorial Board Just Called Out Trump for His 3-Axis Strongman Plans!

The entire editorial board of the Wall Street Journal stated that he likely is pushing through plans to return the world to pre-WWII regional axis of powers with the U.S., Russia, and China having influence and control over territories in their region. This is exactly what Britain’s MI6 leader just said on the BBC News program.

They said that the Trump Administration hasn’t been straight with the American people about their plans to carve the world into 3 strongman regional powers. This was never made apparent to the American people during the election.

These moves taken together hint at a worldview that has long been the goal of American isolationists: Let China dominate the Pacific, Russia dominate Europe, and the U.S. the Americas. The Middle East would presumably remain a region of contention, a least until Mr. Trump does a nuclear deal with Iran.

Game, set, match!

The article contains links to WSJ, former MI6 person on BBC, and link to Warren Buffet’s son’s views.

Sooooo Putin gets Europe, China gets the Pacific, and Trump gets the Americas and probably Gaza.

Are we really headed back to post WWI?
