He did gain something but lost a lot or rather usa lost a lot. He can just claim he forced other countries to enforce border on their dime by force to appeal to his cult. And ofc his cult will ignore or don’t understand the value of trust lost and how this will cause prices to go up even if he backs out now.

- Profit

I never thought he’d do it on purpose
Me neither; not because he’s better than that, but because I didn’t think his ego would let him pretend to take the L. Jokes on me! It seems like his handlers and the billionaires he surrounds himself with are (just) smart enough to play his ego to their own advantage.
I maybe naively thought that is common knowledge 😂🙈
Or he did something stupid to dilute media coverage from the process of turning the USA into a Oligarchy
The other countries should have offered a worse agreement.
