šļøMy take so farā¦
Trump has effectively reset the board by getting all world leaders on record agreeing that the bloodshed must stop⦠he had each leader speak on record for the world to seeā¦
That public alignment on āend the death tollā is the opening wedge for structured peace talksā¦
From here Trumpās role shifts into intelligence collection⦠what does each pillar actually want out of a settlement?
Heāll probe for red lines, soft asks, and trade-offs⦠heās not just listening, heās shaping⦠by playing proxy-spokesman for Putin, Trump can seed Moscowās baseline positions early, making them part of the background rather than disruptive vetoes laterā¦
Thatās classic Art of the Deal positioning, eliminate blockers before they emerge⦠by quietly normalizing themā¦
The agreement on a future trilateral summit (USāRussiaāglobal counterparts) is a major tell⦠it shows consensus that the negotiations will move into a formal structure⦠with Trump firmly positioned as the indispensable broker⦠each one thanked Trump for his leadership in this regard⦠cementing his position as Leader of the Free Worldā¦
Over the coming days and weeks, Trump will work each leader individually, cross-walking positions, finding overlaps, and testing concessionsā¦
This is where his method shines⦠not in drafting treaties himself, but in forcing everyone into a common zone of possibility where peace becomes the only viable optionā¦
In short, the peace frame has been set, the narratives are seeded, and Trump now steps into the grind of deal-making⦠the shuttle diplomacy phase where he turns broad statements of intent into the contours of an actual agreement⦠putting the rubber, firmly against the roadā¦and, they can’t scurry away now.
