The article argues that President Trump's political strength lies in his ability to exploit the transactional nature of the Republican Party and its supporters, yet it highlights his profound misunderstanding of true belief and conviction, particularly evident in his handling of international conflicts like the Iran war and the Ukraine war, where he encounters opponents motivated by deep ideological commitments rather than mere power or profit. #Trump #Politics #IranWar #IR #VE #UA #RU #DK
