U.S. and its 'horrible' leaders are greatest threat to Western civilization - Trump --The country has 'never been closer' to nuclear war, the former president said in a video, urging a ceasefire in Ukraine | 17 March 2023 | Former U.S. president Donald Trump slammed "globalists" and the American neoconservative establishment in a video posted to his social media accounts on Thursday, declaring that the U.S. and "some of the horrible, USA-hating people that represent us" are the "greatest threat to Western civilization today." "These globalists want to squander all of America's strength, blood and treasure, chasing monsters and phantoms overseas while keeping us distracted from the havoc they're creating right here at home," the 2024 presidential candidate explained. Trump warned that the Biden administration had brought the world closer to the brink of nuclear catastrophe than ever before by pouring money and weapons into Ukraine. "Every day this proxy battle continues, we risk global war," he insisted, arguing that a "total cessation of hostilities" should be the "central issue" for the nation. The next order of business under a second Trump presidency would be a complete overhaul of the State Department, Pentagon, intelligence services, and other key agencies to "fire the Deep Staters and put America first" -- followed by "fundamentally reevaluating NATO's purpose and NATO's mission."
