The Trump Deal Gambit: A Five-Stage Political Theatre or Game theory for the dummies

Stage 1: Lie About a Problem
"There's a crisis, folks. A disaster. Never been worse. I know it, you know it, everybody knows it."

– Game theory translation: Invent a problem where none exists. This sets the playing field on your terms, warps public perception, and forces opponents to play defence on a fictitious issue. Stage 2: "Fix" the Fake Problem and Break Something Real
"I’m taking decisive action—nobody’s done this before. Tremendous action."

– Reality: The "fix" causes real-world damage. In game theory, this is creating negative-sum outcomes, but claiming it's a win because you moved the game. Like lighting the board on fire, then boasting about your creative strategy.

What a clusterfuck!

"Trump's sensational statements that he will not refuse to use military or economic force to gain control of Greenland"

ekstrabladet.dk/nyheder/politi… "What happens if they attack?
Both Denmark and the United States are part of the NATO defense alliance, which can prevent the United States from taking over Greenland by military force.

This is according to Lars Bangert Struwe, who is Secretary General of the Atlantic Alliance and has taught at the NATO Defence College.

- When the treaty was made in 1949, the NATO states did not consider what to do if NATO states attacked each other, Struwe tells Ekstra Bladet.

He further talks about the meaning of the musketeer's nest that prevails in the alliance. It means that all NATO countries would attack the United States if they attacked Denmark.

- So according to Article Five, would it be all NATO states against the United States if they move military forces against Greenland?

- Yes, and that's where it gets absurd, and that's why it won't happen, the expert believes.

This means that both the EU and the other NATO states will, by all accounts, stand behind Denmark."

🔑 Key Statements from President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s Interview:

💬 On Corruption and Transparency
"We primarily receive weapons, not cash, and enforce strict measures to ensure resources aren’t misused. If we found someone [misusing resources], we slapped everyone on the wrist... Our soldiers would kill such people with their own hands without any trial."
➡️ Zelenskyy dismissed accusations of Ukraine selling weapons as Russian propaganda.

💥 Addressing Russian Aggression
"We are not one nation. We are not the same country. We’re different countries."
➡️ He rejected Putin’s claims of cultural unity and linked the invasion to historical patterns of unchecked aggression.
"This invasion... It’s hard to understand why nobody wants to listen, look at, and analyse history."

❤️ The Humanitarian Toll
"At this moment, you are no longer a father... Your country is your family. The strength is in your family, and this is the most important thing."
➡️ Zelenskyy shared the personal sacrifices he’s made as a leader.

🛡️ The Role of Dialogue and Strength
"If you are strong, you can speak. Ukraine has to be strong enough; otherwise, what for?"
➡️ He emphasised strength in negotiations and warned against trusting Putin:
"Pressure him so that he is forced to stop the war... Don’t rely on Putin’s will to stop. You won’t see it."

📜 On Ceasefire and Security Guarantees
"If the ceasefire happens without security guarantees... three months later, Putin launches a new wave of attacks. What will Trump look like? What will Ukraine look like?"
➡️ Zelenskyy stressed the need for robust protections to avoid further betrayal.

🌍 Call for Global Accountability
"Pressure him [Putin] so that he is forced to stop the war. That’s important."
➡️ Zelenskyy urged world leaders, including Trump, to take decisive action.

🇩🇪 On Germany and Merkel
"In December 2019 in Normandy... Macron, Merkel, Putin, and I agreed on the ceasefire... For Merkel, gas was extremely important, and we agreed with him [Putin] on this for Europe’s security."
➡️ While acknowledging Merkel’s focus on gas, he contrasted it with his priority:
"For her, gas was the priority. For me, it was the people."

Full transcript: lexfridman.com/volodymyr-zele… On Forgiveness:

"To forgive. No one will forgive. It is absolutely impossible to forgive him. We cannot get into the head and soul of a person who lost their family. Nobody will ever accept this. Absolutely impossible. I don’t know. Do you have children?"

When the interviewer replied that they did not have children but hoped to, Zelenskyy continued:

"Yes. God bless. And this is the most important thing in life, and they simply took away the most precious thing from you. Will you ask who ruined your life before going to rip their head off? I’m just curious. They took your child away. Are you going to ask who did this? And they will answer that that dude did this. You will say, ‘Oh, well then there are no questions.’ No, no, no. You will go to fucking hell and bite their head off, and it will be fair."

I hope that this last strike by Russia is the Straw That Broke the Camel's Back

The Russian missile strike on a children's hospital is a war crime on two levels. First, targeting a hospital is illegal under international law. Second, the tactic of double tapping—waiting to strike again to kill rescuers—is equally heinous.
This act is the final straw. NATO and the EU need to step in.

NATO and the EU should create a special protection force with one clear goal: to protect civilian targets. This force won't join the war but will focus on stopping missiles and attacks aimed at civilians. This action falls under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, which allows for collective self-defence.
Article 51 lets countries defend themselves and others from attacks. This protection force is defensive, aimed at stopping war crimes and saving lives.

This isn't an escalation. It's a move to save civilians and protect civilian infrastructure. By intercepting attacks on non-combatants, NATO and the EU will uphold international humanitarian law and UN Article 51

Attacking a hospital and then targeting rescuers is a barbaric act. A unified, protective response by NATO and the EU will send a strong message: the world won't sit back and watch civilians be deliberately targeted. 3 hospitals

Strengthening Sanctions Against Russia

Reverse Sanctions Framework: Prohibit all exports to Russia unless explicitly permitted, ensuring higher scrutiny and closing loopholes that allow dual-use items to reach the battlefield.

Maritime Inspections: Conduct inspections of oil tankers in territorial waters to prevent the illicit transport of oil, leveraging international maritime law.

Secondary Sanctions: Target individuals, companies, and countries facilitating sanctioned goods to Russia through intermediaries. Impose severe fines on insurance companies that insure such cargo (including those oil tankers).

#sanctionrussia Reverse Sanctions Framework
A reverse sanctions framework has the potential to close the numerous loopholes currently exploited. Items that appear civilian on the surface, such as certain electronics or vehicle parts, can often be repurposed for military use. Under the current system, these items might slip through the cracks due to insufficient checks. However, if every export requires explicit permission, the chances of such dual-use items reaching the battlefield would be significantly reduced.

In today's crazy geopolitical situation, where Europe is facing some serious challenges and Russia is flexing its muscles and has idiotically started a war, it's time for all NATO countries to step up their game. 1/5 We can't just settle for the 2% GDP defence spending requirement anymore; we need to aim higher.
We should consider the 2% GDP as a floor, and not as a ceiling.
Sure, some of our NATO buddies have met or even surpassed the 2% GDP defense spending target. 2/5

It's time to move to retirement, Mr. Hersh.

Is your mind stuck in the years before 1993? There is no country named Czechoslovakia.

Mr Hersh, once again, like so many times before, claims to have secret sources that no one else seems to find. 1/6 Not even afterwards when their claims have been proven false. He is quite a dedicated reporter, protecting even the sources that feed him incorrect information. 2/6

From Doping to Display: How Russia Weaponizes Sports and the Olympics for Propaganda Purposes

Russia’s use of sports and the Olympics as propaganda tools has become increasingly evident in recent years. 1/12

The Olympics are inherently political
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) President, Thomas Bach, that the Olympics “are not about politics” is not only false but also shows a lack of understanding of the historical significance of the Games. 1/13 From the very beginning, the Olympics have been a platform for countries to promote their politics and agendas.
