Since returning to the White House, President Trump has initiated major shifts in policies that have significantly shaken global markets, leading to severe repercussions on international stock markets and undermining public confidence in the US dollar. Commentator 'Drifting Island' points out that the evolving policies are reshaping global power dynamics.

'Drifting Island' stated on social media that Trump's actions have not only startled the world but also left lasting adverse effects. For instance, the deteriorating relationship between the US and the EU, particularly regarding NATO defense spending and tariffs, has disrupted support for Ukraine, forcing it into unfavorable concessions.

Furthermore, Trump's high tariffs on China have proven ineffective, exposing weaknesses in US economic sanctions and diminishing China's fear of American retaliation. This situation complicates responses to potential aggression against Taiwan, undermining any leverage the US might have.

In light of China's rising military capabilities, Taiwan faces an escalating challenge, necessitating a strong commitment to self-reliance. 'Drifting Island' emphasizes the importance of adopting a survival mentality in the current unfavorable conditions.
