The World According to Trump, Putin, and Xi: Newsweek Drew the Map, We Decipher It

Journalists from Newsweek created a map that imagines the world divided among three powers: the USA (Trump), Russia (Putin), and China (Xi). This geopolitical "triumvirate" looks provocative — but if you think carefully, each part of the puzzle carries its own internal logic.

In a shocking cosmic pattern that defies coincidence, the United States is once again approaching a pivotal and painful period of transformation — all under the sign of Gemini, with Uranus as its celestial harbinger. This pattern, repeated throughout U.S. history, suggests that a fourth great war is not only likely but perhaps inevitable. And the clock is ticking: Uranus will enter Gemini on July 7, 2025, and stay there until 2032 — a period poised to shake the foundations of the American experiment.

What If America Became the USSR? The Illusion and the Hard Landing

J.D. Vance, Donald Trump’s running mate and vice president, has made no secret of his admiration for Vladimir Putin. From wearing Soviet-themed T-shirts to praising the Russian model of governance, he embodies a growing faction of the American right that romanticizes authoritarian rule. They view the USSR’s legacy not as a cautionary tale but as a blueprint for an America where the government exerts absolute control, cracks down on opposition, and enforces rigid social order.

But what if the U.S. actually tried to become the Soviet Union? If America fully embraced the USSR experiment, seduced by the attractive packaging—social equality, free healthcare, military might—what would follow? Would it be a utopia of order and prosperity, or a catastrophic freefall into totalitarian rule, economic collapse, and mass oppression?

The answer lies in history, and history suggests a hard landing

The Illusion of a Benevolent Dictatorship: Trump’s Fascination with Authoritarian Power and His Self-Coronation Fantasy

Donald Trump has long expressed admiration for strongman leaders. From Vladimir Putin to Kim Jong-un, he has openly praised autocrats for their ability to rule without the checks and balances of democratic institutions. Time and again, he has voiced envy for their capacity to make decisions unburdened by parliaments, courts, or dissenting voices. More than once, Trump has hinted at his own aspirations for absolute power, floating the idea of ruling as a “dictator for a day” and making comments that suggest a deep-seated desire to govern without constraint.

Yet, what is most striking is that his supporters don’t recoil from such rhetoric—in fact, they embrace it. Many of them genuinely believe that a Trump dictatorship would serve their interests, crushing their perceived enemies while elevating their own status. But history, and logic, suggest otherwise. Dictators do not remain loyal to their followers. The very authoritarianism that Trump's base celebrates in theory will, in practice, be turned against them.
