President Trump seems to be on a war hunt as he grapples with the notion and idea that the United States of America has been taken advantage of with gross misuse of American taxpayer dollars funding half the world while not benefiting the country.
President Trump on numerous occasions said that America should have got the oil in Iraq after so many American military personnel paid the ultimate sacrifice or the thousands that got life changing injuries, instead of pulling out and not getting any payment or reward for ousting Saddam Hussein the brutal Iraqi dictator.
This sentiment is what is driving the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) headed by Tesla and SpaceX maverick Elon Musk, who has uncovered the full extent of wastage from giving American taxpayer dollars to various questionable groups around the world, and not excluding within the United States and the list has been read out by President Trump and other members of his Cabinet and with the open transparency something Elon Musk has done with the coding of Twitter now renamed simply as X onto the DOGE website for the public to see.
The savings of DOGE has been impressive with $1 trillion already saved and a further $6 trillion of savings on the way once the end of the financial year next April of Federal Governmental Funding.
While the focus has been on governmental and public misuse of or over expenditure it has also needs to be noted that major conglomerate private or publicly listed companies are just as inefficient and wasting of money, so hopefully this will be translated to the corporate world as well.
President Trump is fixated on getting the United Kingdom and the rest of Europe to increase their military and defence spending to be able to defend themselves against Putin's aggressive policy and stance starting with Ukraine and wanting to increase his sphere of influence in the region and beyond including the Americas.

This is not bad policy as the United States is containing the Chinese Communists who have been repressing, oppressing and suppressing their citizens since China fell to the Communists in 1949.
President Trump who got voted on the economic ticket also states that he wants to be the 'President of Peace' but even he knows full well that once the Chinese Communists ca no longer contain and maintain their Communist state amongst the wider Chinese population the Communist regime will start to fund conflicts with neighbouring countries and put the 'troublemakers' and 'dissidents' on the frontlines to not only get rid of them but to get them to fight on the battlefield to prevent the Communist regime from falling, like what so many dictatorships end up doing to try and preserve their brutal dictatorship regimes and President Xi knows this too well!
With the threat of Taiwan and it being ingrained into American politics that Taiwan must not fall into the hands of the Chinese Communists in mainland China, there is high probability that this will lead to military conflict between Washington and Beijing.
This is what is aggravating and troubling President Trump with the British and Europeans of relying on the United States for the military backstop, as he and Americans know that fighting on two fronts let alone multiple ones will be a stretch for one country to do and so by equalising the military and economic burden will ensure that democracy, freedom and the rule of law is maintained across the world and hopefully and eventually the Communist regime in China will quietly run its course and fall like it did in the Soviet Union in the early 1990s.
The unfortunate lynching of President Zelensky in the Oval Office because he didn't sign the rare minerals deal because the Ukrainian President wanted a military backstop if Putin invaded Ukraine at a later date didn't materialise and you could see President Trump exasperated at the thought of American involvement in a European war as well as a war with Communist China and the start of World War III clearly unnerved the American President.
It has however materialised that President Zelensky is nearing the economic deal President Trump wants to be paid in literally gold for supporting Ukraine both economically and militarily as he has pushed Putin to the peace negotiation table currently being hosted by Saudi Arabia, but much work is still needed for a total ceasefire by both sides.
Circumventing back to domestic American policy President Trump has ripped up the environmental accords and treaties as he turns the oil and gas pipelines firmly and widely open to fuel the great American economic recovery of pushing down inflation and the general cost-of-living, which turned into a crisis as most of Europe relied on Russian oil and gas and as President Zelensky pointed out this is what led Putin to cover the cost and fund the illegal invasion of Ukraine.
The most contentious topic especially in the southern states is immigration and the backlash that befell president Biden of lack of action is now being exposed as hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants from across the world have been rounded up and returned to their respective countries including serious organised criminal gang members such as MS13, and making America unsafe putting Americans lives on the line and in quite a lot of cases needlessly losing their lives to criminal gang activity.
Something that has President Trump and lawmakers and enforcement fuming is the importation of fentanyl from Mexico and the chemicals being produced and manufactured in Communist China, which has killed so many Americans the highest profile is the late musician, Prince.
Another bugbear of President Trump was the unbalanced and unfair tariffs placed on American goods while the importation of goods into the United States were either at lower tariffs or non-existent placing America as President Trump says, “At a disadvantage!” which through his and many American eyes is totally unacceptable.
In fact, it was the policy of a previous American president who used tariffs to abolish income tax for a brief amount of time and President Trump has called this period between 1870 - 1913 as American Gilded Age and most prosperous period and has made several references to him - William Mckinley, who incidentally and unfortunately got assassinated in 1901.
A few more points that President Trump has put into an Executive Order is the reinstatement of what a man and woman are both biologically and in the eyes of the law, which got heavily confusing with the Trans Rights community allowing biological men to compete in women's sports and often outgunning them and winning all of the trophies, and the idea of mentally being able to say of you feel the opposite sex then you are has all been abolished under his administration.
Often President Trump has referred to his second administration as being the one of commonsense and firmly putting wokeism into its coffin and either burying it or sending it to the crematorium to be burnt to ashes and certainly not surfacing for at least the next four-years of his second term.
What happens next within American and beyond America is anyone's guess but as a last note it must be said that what generally happens in public is miles away of what goes on in private between domestic politicians and with foreign leaders, so the jury must still be out and waiting for more information to be made public before we can say whether President Trump is right to be fuming within and beyond America's borders for now.
