Trump Claims Global Crises Would Have Been Averted Under His Continued Leadership

In his own assessment, had Donald Trump won re-election in 2020, major global crises such as Hamas’s invasion of Israel, the war in Ukraine, and Iran’s arming of groups like Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Hamas would not have occurred. Trump’s argument is politically compelling but oversimplified, suggesting that world events unfold neatly in line with U.S. presidential terms.


As David E. Sanger writes in his analysis, the reality is that presidents inherit a world already in motion, with global issues driven by complex historical forces beyond any one leader's control.


In another development, Trump’s visit to Arlington National Cemetery has sparked controversy due to allegations that his campaign members filmed a gravesite without permission.
