All Trump's Allies Are Turning Against His Farce

When Trump came into office, everyone in public life across the world apparently started to mimic the nonsense, to talk as though Trumpian fantasy was real, even desirable. A process that one commentator has labelled 'farce politik'. But increasingly NATO's Mark Rutte is looking isolated as the only person left who seems to believe in such a process. Europeans, Gulf States, and even Trump's own party (well, baby steps maybe) are discarding the fantasies and calling out the reality for what it is. Not just allies, but also enemies such as Iran, who are working out how to use the fantasy to its best advantage. Let's discuss.
