📢🎙️Trump is pissing off almost 200 countries & people power is fighting back!
🗽 The fight for our jobs and our economy isn't someone else's fight. It's ours.
Right now, Trump is pissing off almost 200 countries — and if they ever decided to join forces, they could stop buying from the U.S. entirely.
Donald Trump's reckless antagonism of almost 200 countries isn't just a diplomatic embarrassment — it's a flashing red warning light for the U.S. economy. Right now, the global economy is interconnected like never before, and while America has long relied on its status as a dominant player, that power is not infinite. If these countries, fed up with Trump's hostility, were to band together and decide to cut America out of their markets, the consequences would be catastrophic. Collectively, these nations represent an $85 trillion economy, a force far larger than the United States alone. They could easily find alternative trade partners and redirect their commerce, effectively sidelining the U.S. from the global marketplace.
This isn't just a hypothetical. Trade alliances are already shifting. Countries like China, India, and members of the European Union are strengthening ties with one another, creating resilient trade networks that don't depend on the U.S. Trump's "America First" rhetoric, once merely inflammatory, is now actively pushing nations away. He has insulted allies, imposed erratic tariffs, and threatened longstanding agreements — all of which erode trust and stability. Other countries are watching closely, taking notes, and preparing contingency plans that could leave America isolated.
When that moment comes, we might scramble to reassure the world, pleading: Please, don't boycott us. Nearly 80% of people who call America home didn't vote for Trump. But I can already hear the world's response: Maybe not, but you voted for him when you stayed home and didn't vote, because abstaining from voting has consequences. Complacency becomes complicity. In 2016 and again in 2020, millions of eligible voters sat on the sidelines. In doing so, they handed power to Trump is a 34-time convicted felon whose disdain for diplomacy and the rule of law has endangered American values and our economic lifeline.
What too many people fail to grasp is just how quickly this could all unravel. Global markets move at lightning speed. The decision to end trade relations, pull investments, or shift supply chains can happen overnight. Sanctions and boycotts, once considered tools of statecraft, could become weapons wielded against the U.S. in response to Trump's provocations. Imagine waking up to find international companies pulling out of U.S. contracts, foreign investors fleeing, and global markets pricing America out. That's not a distant scenario — it's an accelerating risk.
Trump is steering us toward global isolation, and the rest of the world may not hesitate to turn its back on America — hard and fast.
The warning signs are everywhere, yet too many of us ignore them. Our future depends on understanding that every choice we make — or fail to make — at the ballot box shapes our lives at home and our reputation worldwide. If we allow Trump to continue this dangerous trade war, we're not just risking political turmoil at home; we're gambling with our place in the global community. And if the world decides to close its doors to us, it may take generations to earn their trust and business again.
America Is Brave Because You Are Brave
The fight for our jobs and our economy isn't someone else's fight. It's ours.
For too long, we've let corruption slide, thinking:
❌ "It's not my problem."
❌ "Things never change."
❌ "My efforts won't make a difference."
But here's the truth: most Americans don't vote. Apathy has brought us to this crisis. But action can bring us back.
As champions for progress and power to the people, we must double down on our efforts:
✅ Speak out, show up, and build power together.
✅ Push our leaders to do better.
✅ Talk to our families, friends, and communities.
✅ Make voting a habit, not an afterthought.
✅ Mobilize millions of people to reclaim our rights, freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law.
Democracy doesn't defend itself. We do.
It is our voices, our votes, and our collective power that will stop Trump and his cult.
We must organize, mobilize, and refuse to let our democracy fall into the hands of a would-be dictator.
The fight for democracy is our fight.
I want to make it clear that whenever People Power United uses the word "fight" in our writings, posts, or spoken word, we mean fiercely advocate—never to incite or support violence. We do not condone any form of violence, nor do we advocate for breaking any laws.
Our commitment is to peaceful advocacy through the exercise of our constitutional rights, including freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, peaceful rallies, protests, and acts of civil disobedience. These are the tools we use to defend our rights, freedoms, the rule of law, and democracy.
And together, we will win.
