The Narrative Ep. 86: The Peacemakers

Burning Bright goes solo for The Peacemakers, a look at how Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are steering the world toward peace and a multipolar order while their opponents try to stop it. He opens with the Brazilian election result and the Democrats' talk of a blue wave in Congress, then breaks down a 55-second Obama clip on the Iran war, pulling out two claims he says are true and one he says is false. From there he looks at why Iran sits at the center of the fight on Israel's doorstep, the Russian refinery strikes, Zelensky, Nord Stream and the Lindsey Graham sanctions bill aimed at Iran and Russia. In the second half he lays out his reverse Hegelian dialectic theory, revisits the Righteous Russia series and its Game of Thrones power refrain, and argues Trump may end up backing an Iranian civil nuclear program. He closes with the Badlands Blitz prediction of Xi Jinping entering the chat and Putin's proposed trilateral summit with Trump and Xi.
