Trump's Global Vanity Project Fizzles

 



The corrupt and mentally ill Malignant Fascist imagines himself as a ruler of the world*, and his newest, dangerous vanity project / scam the "Board of Peace," moves him a step closer to that.  One problem: not many countries want to sign up to his shady, narcissistic scheme, and those that do are mostly small-time players headed by his sycophants, fellow autocrats and grifters. From the Associated Press:

"Divisions emerged Wednesday over U.S. President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace as its ambitions have grown beyond Gaza, with some Western European countries declining to join, others remaining noncommittal and a group of Muslim countries agreeing to sign on.

The developments underscored European concerns over the expanded and divisive scope of the project — which some say may seek to rival the U.N. Security Council’s role in mediating global conflicts. Trump is looking to form the board officially this week on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland.

Norway and Sweden said they won’t accept their invitations, after France also said no, while a bloc of Muslim-majority nations — Egypt, Indonesia, Jordan, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates — said in a joint statement that their leaders would join.

It was not immediately clear how many countries would accept. A White House official said about 30 countries were expected to join, and about 50 had been invited. Two other U.S. officials, who similiarly spoke on condition of anonymity to describe internal plans not yet made public, said roughly 60 countries had been invited but only 18 had so far confirmed their participation." (our emphasis)

Any organization that has the MF as its "chairman" and demands at least $1 billion for permanent membership is bound to be corrupt. In trying to set himself as an international power broker / "peacemaker", the MF wants to supplant the United Nations and other international bodies and decide who gets lucrative and corrupt business from the member nations (note the heavy participation of petrostates).

As of this posting, apparently only 21 countries have signed on to the MF's project, with Europe holding declining with the exception of Orban's Hungary. No China, no India, no Japan, no South Korea, no Russia (yet). 

*BONUS:  McGill University's Jacob Levy notes that the board's charter essentially would make decisions of member states subordinate to the personal jurisdiction of the megalomaniac MF and his family.
