Donald Trump a 'Peace Hero' or the 'Catalyst of Conflict'...!

Will Donald Trump, the self-proclaimed disruptor of the status quo, and a champion of world peace, truly revolutionize the war-driven American economic system, or will his audacious leadership style ignite new global conflicts?

As the new saviour of American democracy, Trump’s rise has sparked a whirlwind of hope and scepticism. Can the capitalist giant embrace a value-based ideology, or will it remain tethered to its militaristic roots?

Trump, a master sportsman but lacking in sportsman spirit has already made bold moves akin to a T20 batsman scoring a century in the first 24 hours. Yet, the world watches with bated breath, questioning whether his administration can dismantle the entrenched structures of aggressive nationalism and economic imperialism.

Astrological insights from Pramod Gautam, chairman of Vedic Sutram, suggest "a cyclical nature to history, where planetary movements mirror recurring patterns of conflict and resolution. This perspective implies that despite Trump’s ambitions, the geopolitical forces driving international relations may resist radical change. Territorial disputes and the balance of power between nations remain formidable barriers."

Prof Paras Nath Chaudhary highlights the deep entanglement of the US military-industrial complex with its economic model. "For decades, defence contracts and military engagements have fueled economic growth, making a pivot to peaceful diplomacy a threat to this lucrative status quo. The vested interests of the war machine ensure that the US continues to prioritize military actions under the guise of national security. In an era of global interdependence, isolationist policies are no longer viable."

"Modern economies are intricately linked through trade, communication, and cultural exchange. Any disruption to this delicate balance could destabilize not only the US economy but also global markets. The US capitalist system thrives on cheap labour and expansive markets, raising questions about the sustainability of its economic imperialism, especially in its dealings with India and China," Choudhary adds.

To give an example the revenue of the top 100 weapons manufacturing companies in America in 2023 was 317 billion dollars. The US in 2023 spent over 800 billion dollars on defence.

Historically, the US has relied on military engagement to drive economic stability. From World War I to Vietnam, Kuwait, and Afghanistan, conflict has been a cornerstone of its growth strategy. A prolonged period of peace could disrupt these economic cycles, reducing defence spending and impacting job creation. Even during the Great Depression, increased military expenditure was a tool for economic recovery, underscoring the deep-rooted connection between war and prosperity in American capitalism.

While Trump’s rhetoric hints at a shift in priorities, history suggests that the US may inevitably return to its militaristic tendencies. The question remains: will Trump’s tenure mark the dawn of a new era of peace, or will it reinforce the age-old cycle of conflict and economic exploitation?
