Master Threads


Has anybody connected the dots?

Have you noticed the recent moves Trump has made against India?

Weren’t Trump and Modi really good friends in his first term?
The media described it as a “bromance.”

What changed?

“The men shared bear hugs, showered praise on each other and made appearances side by side at stadium rallies — a big optics boost for two populist leaders with ideological similarities. Each called the other a good friend.
In India, the bonhomie between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and U.S. President Donald Trump was seen as a relationship like no other. That is, until a series of events gummed up the works.”

It seems that the “bromance” has ended in Trump’s second term.

“From Trump’s tariffs and India’s purchase of oil from Russia to a U.S. tilt toward Pakistan, friction between New Delhi and Washington has been hard to miss. And much of it has happened far from the corridors of power and, unsurprisingly, through Trump’s posts on social media.
It has left policy experts wondering whether the camaraderie the two leaders shared may be a thing of the past, even though Trump has stopped short of referring to Modi directly on social media.”

Notice that most of the dispute happens on Trump’s “social media.”

Narrative deployment.

First Trump arranged a “ceasefire” between India and Pakistan.

Then Trump warned India to stop buying oil from Russia.

India ignored Trump’s warnings.

“Donald Trump imposed 50% tariffs on most US imports from India, making good on a threat to punish one of the world’s largest economies over its purchases of discounted Russian oil.”


The key is “global supply chains.”

Is Trump really punishing India for purchasing Russian oil?

Or is Trump purposely restructuring “global supply chains” and using “tariffs” to do it?

Why?
