“Only my morality can stop me”: Trump, power, and the end of restraint

President Trump said his New Years Resolution was "peace on earth" ... others suggest it's "world domination". The US president told the New York Times that there is only one thing that can limit his global power: his own morality, adding that he does not need international law. In this episode of Conflicts of Interest, Professor Clionadh Raleigh and Dr Caitriona Dowd unpack what it means when global power is framed as a personal choice rather than a political or legal constraint. They explore the rapid and highly personalised use of US force — from Venezuela to threats directed at Nigeria, Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, and even Greenland. They examine what has changed in the way power is exercised, and what has disappeared: coalition-building, legal justification, and even the pretence of multilateral consent. #Trump #GlobalPower #Venezuela #InternationalLaw #ConflictTrends
