Forget 4D Chess, Trump is playing the game of Risk and he's turning in cards.

I wonder if Trump is an old Risk player like some of us on this forum?
Everyone who plays the game of Risk understands in order to hold North America you also need to control your southern flank Central/South America.
I see a lot of dice rolling and card playing in America's future, could the US be jockeying for a major geopolitical realignment involving contiguous neighbors?
Sounds a bit Imperialistic. I'm not exactly on board but I'm willing to entertain the plan if someone can show me it means better protecting the sovereignty of the constitutional republic along with sending a message to our global adversaries that we are not the incompetent and soft nation the installed Biden regime has led you to believe.

You gotta hold those cards as long as you can. Turning in too early can screw you.

That card turn was one of the keys along with psychological warfare...

You probably used the Australia strategy.

Exactly what China and Russia are planning and to some degree they're executing the plan.

They're not making a currency.
And China is basically bending Russia over for convenience and when it's not so convenient, they'll end it, unless Russia realizes they're China's bitch first and gets upset.
The US, Mexico, and Canada dominate them together due to actual free trade and not economic subjugation.

If I got Australia early in the game I was about a 70% winner.
Occasionally you could have a couple of players gang up on ya or maybe some bad dice rolls but overall if you could get Australia early you were in good shape.

I had a pretty serious RISK group once upon a time. We played almost every Sunday night for well over a year. We had to develop a whole bunch of supplemental rules to keep the non-wartime peace between everyone. Sometimes gameplay got so heated people would refuse to talk to each other for extended periods of time (even husband and wife).

Taking Australia can give you an early lead but it will make you a target.
My early game strategy was to build up as many troops in *as few as possible* countries and not worry about holding any continents.

The Gulf of America has a nice ring to it.

Damn, you must be as old as I am. We had similar fights. Longest silent treatment was 3 months between 2 good friends.

In my teens through my mid 20's it was Friday/Saturday night with two of my brothers, a friend or two and two of my brother in-laws. Couple cases of beer, weed and political discussions while we played, usually 3-4 of us ganging up on the one conservative BIL, he took it like a champ.

I would ally with another player and set up a card country on the border between us, and only leave one unit on it and take turns taking that country. So we could build up cards to wipe the other players out, and then turn on each other when the time was right.

I don't know if Trump's wanting to leave his print on history by enlarging America or its something else. Whatever it is, I'm good with it. Its really what needs to happen to oppose the Globalist desires. If America can have direct control over all our coast and how things are run, it's a big disadvantage to those who wish to trap us in a New World Order.
Also it would allow us to deal directly with the cartels.
I'm sure this will be hard to accept for some, but it's the natural order of progress and necessary.

Psychological warfare was just as important as rolling dice and turning in cards. The chess game was convincing others, you're not the threat and here's why.

We had to enact a strict No Treaties policy in order to keep the group going.
