Trump and Vance are adults

Trump and Vance are adults:If you take a fast inventory of the world’s “Great Power” leaders, they all have one thing in common: adulthood.

This is one of the most important “national security” aspects of former president Trump and his running mate, J.D. Vance: they are adults and don’t hide it.  Neither does Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu.  Like them or not, neither does Russia’s Vladimir Putin, or China’s Xi Jinping.

In the game of great-power politics, these leaders play to win, and they don’t suffer fools.  They know where they are going, and they know how to get there.  As Trump recently stated, they are on top of their game.  Harris and her running mate aren’t even in the game, and the rest of the world knows it. That’s dangerous because it signals weakness and easy defeat.
