Absolutely spot on
The vibe shift hit American politics on the night of November 5. What no one foresaw was that it would almost immediately go global, too.
The crude way to think about this is just geopolitical physics. The American electorate decisively reelects Donald Trump. Eevernment falls, the South Korean president declares martial law, Bashar al-Assad flees Syria. There’s an economic chain reaction, too. Bitcoin rallies, the dollar rallies, U.S. stocks rally, Tesla rallies. Meanwhile, the Russian currency weakens, China slides deeper into deflation, and Iran’s economy reels.
One catchphrase that sums it up: It’s like Trump’s already president.
If the vibe shift in culture is about founder mode versus diversity, equity, and inclusion committees, the global vibe shift is about peace through strength versus chaos through de-escalation. It’s Daddy’s Home—not the fraying liberal international order.
