Characterised by chaos

Donald Trump has returned on the global political scene as the US President, and as anticipated, with a simmering chaos that characterised his first term as well.

For good or bad, Trump continues to act in defiance of the evolved world order and global thinking. On his very first day back in office, he signed a flurry of executive orders that signal a dramatic shift from the policies of his predecessor, Joe Biden.

Trump's abhorrent decisions—ranging from ending birthright citizenship to recognising only two genders at the federal level—are disruptive enough to boggle the calmest of minds. Contrary to Trump's claims that these moves are about restoring America's “common sense,” they have left many questioning the direction in which the country is heading.
