In 1513, Machiavelli wrote The Prince — a guidebook for those who seek power, rule through fear, and shape reality.
In 2025, Donald Trump signed a global tariff order that shook the world economy.

Coincidence? Or is Trump the real-world embodiment of Machiavelli’s most controversial ideas?

In this video, we explore how Trump’s policies and persona align—almost perfectly—with the strategy of The Prince, from fear-based leadership to image manipulation and chaos management.

Whether you're into politics, psychology, or power dynamics, this analysis offers a new lens through which to understand the modern political battlefield.
