As Donald Trump measures drapes in the Oval Office, world leaders have rushed to offer their congratulations.

If Putin seems excited – at least, by his standards – it could be because of Donald’s promise about the war in Ukraine.

Twenty-four hours is roughly how long it took for President Zelensky to warn European leaders this would be devastating for Ukraine.

Trump has guaranteed a similarly hasty end to the war in Gaza – but Benjamin Netanyahu believes his ascension means even greater support for his government. A view apparently shared by Israeli troops.

Today, Joe Biden gave some words of advice, urging Americans to “bring down the temperature.”

Temperature-lowering may prove tough, given Trump has dismissed climate science and strongly advocated for increased fossil fuel production.

Then there’s the global economy.

Trump has promised tariffs of up to 20% will be placed on all imports across the board to drive up revenue and encourage local production.

But experts say it’s inflation that will be driven up, and not just in America.

So, with Donald Trump’s decisions leading not just America but the world, where exactly will he take us?
