Make no mistake, we were headed there anyway.
Sadly with great orange Hitler in charge we're probably going to be the axis powers this time along with Putin and Winnie the Pooh and the rest of the world doesn't stand a chance because we have all the bombs.
I doubt the US is going to play an active role in that new Axis, no matter how much taintlicking Trump does... I think it's more likely we are simply declawed mostly due to a sudden internal focus shift (attempting to reroute the military to purge "illegals" and whatever other civil strife ensues as a result), leading to an effective breakdown of global presence and influence.
Once Trump takes office, the US is pretty much guaranteed to no longer be a global superpower. Maybe not overnight, but the damage done will take generations to fix and that's probably the real goal here... not to make the US join hands with them, but to entirely neutralize us as a potential threat or obstacle. We might still have all the bombs, but what use are they when our incoming government is more likely to use them on our own cities or be paralyzed with infighting about maybe not using them on our own cities?
Counterpoint: the military attack on illegals is a first step. An attempt to put the blame for all of our country's ills onto a specific class or ethnicity. This is exactly what Hitler did with the Jews. The next step would be to make a play to convince the populace that annexing another country would be an effective solution to cure the problems of the nation.
The fat orange fuck has literally bragged about reading Mein Kampf. He's reading from Hitler's playbook and using it as an instruction manual.
