The Mexican president, López Obrador, and his American counterpart, Trump, share the same illness: megalomania, which leads them to seek the maximum possible power at the expense of sacrificing the well-being of their countries. Both have been pointed out for their actions that have led to the destruction of public administration, the economy, and democracy. In Trump's case, his 'dark triad' of narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy has been mentioned.
In the case of Mexico, the accusation of collaboration between the government and organized crime is highlighted, as well as the management of the economy and controversial decisions related to virtual currency. On the other hand, Trump seeks to position the United States in a multipolar world, seeking influence in the Western Hemisphere and confronting China on different fronts.
The American president has demonstrated a high opinion of himself, a lack of limits in achieving his objectives, and an absence of empathy. His focus on issues such as migration and security has led him to make controversial decisions and impose trade threats that have impacted the international economy. His goal of expelling China from America and positioning himself as a global leader are part of his geopolitical strategy.
