Would Trump Start a War to Cover Up his Alleged Crimes and Mistakes?

2025-12-18 | UPDATES #082 | Trump shits on everything and everyone when they cease to be useful to him. We will go back to his first chaotic administration to understand the patterns and see what he’s learned in his second to avoid dirty laundry in public and the revolving door of sacked and disgraced aids, supporters and sycophants. We’ll also ask, what are the implications for Ukraine, and the Trump security guarantees, as well as for Venezuela and an incipient war, based on a repeated pattern of behaviour in Trump that seeks to avoid all accountability, responsibility or blowback from his mistakes, actions and inactions, and clear venality that is happening in plain sight. We have the most recent example in the despicable language he used in response to the brutal and tragic murder of Rob Reiner and his wife. Trump debases everything, every conversation, every act becomes political, and everything that is political becomes personal. Trump is depraved, a moral vacuum, a communications super sewer, bringing filth and hate to his audience, as well as adversaries. Allies become enemies in a heartbeat and are abandoned. Then he treats them with the disdain with which he treats all adversaries, in fact anyone that does not show complete subservience to him or acquiesce to play the humiliation game in the court of King Trump. What are the domestic political and geopolitical implications of this abuse, inconsistency, need to control, subvert and humiliate everyone? ----------SOURCES: Brookings – Tracking turnover in the Trump administrationhttps://www.brookings.edu/articles/tracking-turnover-in-the-trump-administration/Reuters (Dec 16, 2025) – Trump sues the BBC for $10 billion over speech edithttps://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/trump-sues-bbc-defamation-over-editing-january-6-speech-2025-12-16/AP (Dec 16, 2025) – Trump sues BBC for defamation over editinghttps://apnews.com/article/a9fd196c4f242decd8f28e8d0ce74442Reuters (Dec 16, 2025) – UK PM Starmer’s office response to Trump BBC lawsuithttps://www.reuters.com/world/uk-pm-starmers-office-trump-legal-action-is-matter-bbc-2025-12-16/CPJ (Dec 2025) – CPJ statement on Trump BBC lawsuit and press freedomhttps://cpj.org/2025/12/cpj-trumps-bbc-lawsuit-is-yet-another-attack-on-us-media-freedom/PEN America (Dec 16, 2025) – Statement on Trump exporting anti-press tactics via BBC lawsuithttps://pen.org/press-release/trump-exports-anti-press-tactics-abroad/Reuters (Dec 17, 2025) – Judge allows Trump’s ballroom project to proceed for nowhttps://www.reuters.com/world/judge-allows-trumps-ballroom-project-proceed-now-2025-12-17/Reuters (Dec 16–17, 2025) – Judge unlikely to immediately halt Trump White House ballroom projecthttps://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/trumps-300-million-white-house-ballroom-makeover-faces-day-court-2025-12-16/Reuters (Apr 24, 2025) – 100 days of DOGE: lots of chaos, not so much efficiencyhttps://www.reuters.com/world/us/100-days-doge-lots-chaos-not-so-much-efficiency-2025-04-24/----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.
