As the opening of the Overton Window widens, the credibility of the mainstream media and the ideology it disseminates is imploding. That is the only real takeaway from the WEF’s annual jamboree in Davos, Switzerland.
The temple of the globalists was shattered by the Trump Administration when Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick bluntly declared, “Globalism has failed the West.” He lectured them on the stupidity of “offshoring your medicine, your semi-conductors, your entire industrial base upon which you should be dependent, for that is fundamental to your sovereignty.”
Such policies have exacerbated unemployment, increased taxes and welfare costs. In contrast, the Trump Administration has put the interests of the American worker first. Lutnick’s remarks were supported by the new German Chancellor Freidrich Merz, who delivered the strongest internal critique the EU has heard in years.
Merz accused the EU of wasting its potential for growth by curtailing individual freedom and entrepreneurial innovation while bloating bureaucracy. “Europe has become the world champion of over-regulation. That has to end!” he said. Referring to the exorbitant cost of electricity because of adherence to green ideology, Merz admitted that the shutting down of nuclear plants was “a serious mistake.”
Blown back by the incontrovertible realities of why EU policies are a failure, there was no respite for the globalist faithful as Nato chief Mark Rutte told them Trump was correct about the security of Greenland in the light of increased Chinese and Russian activity there.
Rutte’s remarks came in the wake of Trump’s reminder that for 20 years, Denmark had been told to thwart the Russian threat to Greenland, but had done nothing. Denmark’s claim to Greenland, therefore, lacked credibility, seeing as the US foots the bill for defending it.
The final crunch for the globalists was Trump’s use of the WEF’s platform to launch his International Board of Peace. Endorsed by the UN Security Council in November, besides the 20 members present on the dais, Trump indicated that a total of 59 states have indicated their support.
The complete absence of the pillars of the EU from the Board of Peace was conspicuous because the EU is committed to war in Ukraine, having just provided €100 billion to their puppet Zelinsky to continue the conflict.
Economically, ideologically, strategically, politically and internationally, Trump is wresting control away from those who have been determining the narrative on issues. For the various installed leaders like EU president Ursula von der Leyen, Macron, Starmer, Carney of Canada and the mainstream political parties elsewhere, like in Australia, the winds of changed discourse signal their demise.
