Michael Cohen - Trump Shreds America's Global Standing

When a president stands at the podium of the United Nations General Assembly, the world is watching. It’s not just another speech; it’s a moment where America defines itself to 193 nations. The words spoken there ripple outward, shaping alliances, trust, and the fragile sense that there’s at least one nation capable of leading with decency.

And then there’s our President; President Trump.

On Tuesday, Trump treated the world to what happens when the teleprompter fails and the id takes over. “I’m happy to be up here nevertheless, and that way you speak more from the heart,” he announced. If what followed was his heart, then America’s heart has been hijacked by hate and anger.

What should have been a statesman’s address turned into a screed of racist attacks, anti-science drivel, and cheap self-promotion. He ranted against immigration, warned Europeans they were “destroying their heritage,” mocked London’s Muslim mayor with lies about sharia law, and declared that green energy was a “con job” invented by “stupid people.” He even used the moment to hawk his campaign hats. That’s not global leadership; it’s a late-night infomercial for bigotry.
