Victor Davis Hanson: "No One Is Prepared for What’s About to Happen..."

Victor Davis Hanson just revealed Trump’s secret weapon—trolling with a purpose. When Trump floats ideas like renaming the Gulf of Mexico or buying Greenland, the media lose their minds. But behind the shock, there’s always a strategy. Trump doesn’t just want attention—he wants results.

Take Mexico. Trump’s “Gulf of America” remark wasn’t just bluster; it forced Mexico to crack down on illegal caravans. Or his call to buy Greenland—suddenly, people were talking about the region’s strategic importance. Even his jabs at Canada weren’t random. Trudeau’s government enjoys U.S. military protection while ignoring its obligations. Trump’s blunt approach puts pressure where it needs to be.

And then there’s China. Panama was supposed to be free of foreign influence under the old treaty, yet China is now deeply entrenched. Instead of diplomatic hand-wringing, Trump exposes the hypocrisy, forcing real discussions.

The bigger picture? MAGA is evolving. Hanson lays out how Trump’s movement is expanding, drawing in figures from all over—RFK Jr., Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and even disaffected Democrats. But that broad coalition brings new challenges, from tax cuts to immigration policy. Can Trump balance the traditional MAGA base with his new allies?

One thing is clear: Trump isn’t playing by the old political rules. He forces the conversation, reshapes the debate, and—more often than not—gets what he wants. Hanson breaks it all down in this must-watch analysis.
