Trump has entered the White House for a second term, and it’s now nearly 100 days in. His approval rating has dropped from 53% at the start of his term to 48% currently. Judging from the ongoing protests happening across the country, his support may continue to decline…

I personally never had much fondness for Trump. During last year’s presidential election, I would rather have voted for another “rotten apple” than for him. However, after observing the series of policies he has implemented since taking office, I’ve changed my view and feel he deserves some credit!

First, Trump’s immigration policy resonates deeply with me. I was once an immigrant myself, and I have a strong understanding and sympathy for immigrants—but we followed legal procedures. Unlike the groups of people now forming caravans at the border, boldly marching into the U.S., demanding food, shelter, and even legal assistance to apply for welfare… Trump immediately packaged these “invaders” and sent them back home, cutting off the trouble and saving the U.S. government a significant amount of money.

Furthermore, Trump has even considered amending the 14th Amendment of the Constitution (the birthright citizenship law) to prevent opportunists from coming to the U.S. just to give birth and gain citizenship. In past years, I’d often see heavily pregnant Chinese women in supermarkets, proud and noisy, thinking they could follow in the footsteps of “Li Lihua” and give birth in America. Now, that kind of “scenery” is gone—and I truly thank Trump for that.

Second, I wholeheartedly support Trump’s proposal to occupy Greenland. Think about it—Greenland has an area of 2.16 million square kilometers, even larger than Alaska’s 1.72 million, yet it only has a population of about 50,000. Located between the Arctic and Atlantic oceans, near North America and within sight of Europe, it is strategically positioned as a key gateway for Arctic shipping routes, which would dramatically reduce shipping time between Asia and Europe.

Greenland is also home to the Thule Air Base, a crucial U.S. military stronghold in the Northern Hemisphere. It’s rich in mineral resources—lead, zinc, uranium, and rare earths. One of the world’s largest rare earth deposits is in the southern Kvanefjeld region. As global warming reduces ice cover, the potential for resource development is huge.

Greenland is a self-governing territory under Denmark. Denmark, a tiny country with fewer than 6 million people and just 43,000 square kilometers of land, clinging to Greenland’s 2.16 million square kilometers, is frankly overreaching. It’s like a frail man married to a stunning beauty—no wonder Trump is eyeing it.

The U.S. could acquire Greenland with little effort. Denmark subsidizes Greenland with only $600 million annually. The U.S. could easily offer 100 times that to win over local residents. Denmark has only 150 soldiers stationed there, while the U.S. has 500. Whether it’s diplomatic or military, Denmark is no match. Trump is serious—his son and Vice President Vance have already visited. If Trump can pull this off during his term, his slogan “Make America Great Again” will truly be fulfilled. His dream of having his face carved on Mount Rushmore could even come true…

Back in 1867, the U.S. bought Alaska from Russia for $7.2 million. Now Russia wants $1 trillion to buy it back, and the U.S. scoffs. If Trump really secures Greenland, even if America sells it wholesale or retail 50 years later, it could go for hundreds of trillions—enough for Americans to splurge for another century.

Third, Trump’s push for reciprocal tariffs around the world is absolutely necessary. The U.S. has a trade deficit of hundreds of billions annually. No matter how powerful America is, being drained by foreign economies like this is unsustainable. Trump didn’t come up with this idea only after becoming president. As early as 1987, when he was still a regular businessman, he wrote articles in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe urging the government to impose 20% tariffs on Japan and Saudi Arabia to counter their economic rise. Now that he’s president, of course he’s sticking to his “true love.”

So far, Trump’s tariff policies have caused stock market volatility, inflationary pressure, and widespread protests—but I believe these are temporary. According to White House spokespeople, over 70 countries have already “surrendered” to the U.S. Trump is proud of how many foreign leaders are lining up to “kiss his ass.” These pitiful small countries are scrambling to offer the U.S. whatever it wants. As for tougher opponents (the EU, China), they’ll eventually come to the table.

Don’t be overly alarmed by the current tense U.S.-China situation. In China, Trump is sometimes translated as “Chuan Pu,” possibly referencing his face-changing skills like in Sichuan opera. Before long, he’ll likely be saying “I have a good relationship with Xi Jinping” to ease tensions. In the end, he won’t let the stock market crash, inflation spiral, or allow another Great Depression like in 1933. So, relax…

To conclude, let me humbly offer Trump some clever advice for dealing with Chinese leaders :  1. Chinese people care deeply about face, and their leaders are no exception. If you show them face ( diplomatic gestures that honor this cultural sensitivity), you’ll gain substance in return in negotiations .  2. Taiwan has already given TSMC to the U.S.; what remains is now like a chicken rib—tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw away. Why not go with the flow and declare the U.S. will no longer interfere in Taiwan’s sovereignty? The Chinese government will surely repay America in other ways. Not only will this avoid conflict, but it would also contribute to global peace and stability.

If Trump achieves this, another one of his dreams—winning the Nobel Peace Prize—might come true. Then world peace would be assured, and people everywhere would rejoice…
