Well we certainly didn’t have the mess on the world scene we have now, but admittedly that’s probably more to do with the weak leadership Biden has shown on the world scene more so than Trump being a strong man leader.
Trump uses trade as his weapon, not just oil. He also seems to get an ego buzz from ‘ making deals’ as he calls it. He would have probably threatened Ukraine into making a deal with Russia, which I personally wouldn’t have backed but anyway..
