Donald Trump Is Uniting the World Against Him

Donald Trump Is Uniting the World Against Him

By Richard Palmer • April 2, 2025

It’s tariff day. The entire world held its breath to see exactly what taxes United States President Donald Trump would place on goods made around the world.

He announced today that countries will face a range of tariffs, from 10 to 40 percent. The United Kingdom, Australia, Singapore and Brazil get off lightly, with just a 10 percent tariff. The European Union faces tariffs of 20 percent. Details are still being released, but this would presumably come on top of the tariffs already announced, such as the 25 percent tariff on vehicles.

Japan faces tariffs of 24 percent; South Korea, 25 percent; and China, 34 percent. Canada didn’t appear on President Trump’s chart.

While these nations haven’t yet had time to react, they were transforming the planet even before the tariffs were announced.

Just last summer, Japan sailed a destroyer into China’s waters. China responded by sending fighter jets into Japan’s airspace—for the first time in history.

These two nations have decades of bad blood. Japan killed 15 million Chinese in World War ii, many in brutal massacres. Japanese leaders still deny their war crimes, their textbooks glorify those who carried them out, and they’ve refused China’s requests for an official apology from Japan’s emperor. The two both claim the Senkaku Islands. China wants to conquer Taiwan. Japan wants to keep it independent. Japan has often spoken out against China’s human rights abuses and persecution of the Uyghurs. It has led to diplomatic spats, trade sanctions and military threats.

For last decade, around 90 percent of Japan’s inhabitants have told pollsters they have a poor opinion of China. Last year the proportion of Chinese with a poor opinion of Japan shot to the same level.

South Korea has problems with both. It too was brutalized by Japan during World War ii and has received little in the way of apology. And it too has argued with China over parts of the sea, with Chinese ships turning South Korean ships away from what Korea regards as parts of its own territory. It shares Japan’s concerns about Chinese ambitions in Taiwan and human rights abuses.

Getting these three countries to work together, deepen ties, and make symbolic gestures of friendship is a major feat. And it is happening thanks to one man: Donald Trump.

In the face of President Trump’s tariffs, Japan, China and South Korea have been working on their own free trade agreement and deepening the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, a trade agreement the three already participate in along with Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, the Philippines and many others. Their three trade ministers met on March 30, just over a week after their foreign ministers met for the first time since 2023.

“It is one of the most striking economic defeats suffered by America that I have witnessed in more than 40 years covering international affairs,” wrote the Telegraph’s Ambrose Evans-Pritchard.

“For all intents and purposes, the U.S. is now a rogue nation when it comes to trade,” said the University of Sussex’s Michael Gasiorek. “I don’t think there is a global trade war going on. The U.S. is fighting a trade war with everybody, but the others are keen to cooperate even more.”

The EU has also pledged closer global ties in response. “Europe already has trade agreements in place with 76 countries,” said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen yesterday. “And we are now growing this network. We just concluded trade deals with mercosur, Mexico and Switzerland. We launched the first-ever Clean Trade and Investment Partnership with South Africa.”

China has reached out to Europe, raising the prospect of this Asian trade bloc joining with Europe and its African and Latin American allies to form a giant conglomerate excluding the U.S. “China is willing to work with the EU to handle economic differences in the proper manner,” said He Lifeng, China’s vice premier. Chinese General Secretary Xi Jinping has invited the heads of Mercedes and bmw to meet with him. And EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič visited Beijing, China, on March 27–28 to try to settle the trade disputes between the two power blocs to present a more united front to President Trump.

Perhaps it overdramatizes things to place all of this on the head of Mr. Trump. After all, many of these countries have had tariffs on U.S. goods for decades—while the U.S. had much lower tariff boundaries. It’s understandable that President Trump wants to right that imbalance. It may be more accurate to say he is exposing a global jealousy toward the United States that was there all along. But he is accelerating the unification of these enemies.

This unification is the subject of a powerful prophetic warning. Almost all today reject Bible prophecy—but its warnings to America match exactly what is building right now. Isaiah 23 describes a maritime alliance called the “mart of nations” between “Chittim” (China), “Tyre” (the economic power rising in Europe), “Tarshish” (Japan) and others. This alliance is coming together now.

Our article “Trade Wars Are Here” explains this and other prophecies, and shows how they will quickly affect your world. As that article warns: “President Trump’s focus on sea gates reflects a stronger will and clearer view of the danger in the world. But that is not enough to save America. The nations are preparing for trade war on a level Americans cannot conceive of. If Americans repent now, God can once again bless the nation with protection. If not, God will use the suffering that results to get through to America and all mankind.”
