US President Donald Trump attacked Venezuela and kidnapped its leader, threatened to take Greenland, and is regularly talking to Vladimir Putin. This has led multiple world leaders to declare the end of the socalled rules-based global order that the US set up in the first place. Beneath all the chaos, there are patterns. Some of Trump’s foreign policy aims have a lot of support in his administration and even follow long-term grand strategy goals that long predate his presidency. Deliberately undermining alliances, sweet-talking foes, and raiding the Western Hemisphere for resources are just pieces of the puzzle. All of these tactics are shaping the world of tomorrow while leaving open the question: If the old world order is gone, who is in charge of what comes next?
