The World Is DITCHING Trump’s America | Luke Thomas Gets Political

Luke Thomas: Donald Trump's second presidency is damaging America long term, and the results will hurt America long after the 80-year-old is gone. Trump’s second-term political fallout will do far more long-term damage than most Americans realize. From fractured alliances and economic self-sabotage to weakened institutions at home, the consequences of political extremism don’t simply disappear when an administration ends. This conversation breaks down how global trust in the United States may already be eroding, why international partners could be permanently recalibrating their relationships with America, and what happens when domestic political chaos creates economic pain both locally and globally. The discussion also explores media narratives around Gaza, the dehumanization embedded in political language, and how propaganda shapes public understanding of conflict. From deportation economics to DOGE-related job losses to international security instability, the throughline is clear: damage compounds fast when institutions are weakened. Is this temporary political turbulence, or the beginning of a deeper structural decline?
