What quantum force mutually attracts Trump and Putin? With ideals finished off and lying perfumed with eau impériale, they are attracted by the radiation of the oligarchic system, by power, greed, and division as a subatomic code

The fatal attraction between Putin and Trump is as unsettling as quantum physics, which seeks the ultimate nature of reality.
“It was as if the ground that held us up had vanished and nothing could, in the absence of any solid foundation, be erected,” confessed Albert Einstein upon discovering Max Planck’s revolutionary approaches to atomic and subatomic systems and their interactions with forces like electromagnetic radiation.
Trump’s second arrival at the White House has caused among Westerners (and beyond) the same shock that quantum physics caused in Einstein: it is as if the ground that held us up has vanished.
While waiting for the tiniest particles of matter to reveal what reality consists of, analysts try to understand this sudden connection between the United States and Russia, two empires in heat that, like protons and neutrons, should repel each other but now feel attracted like those two particles playing quantum ping-pong: protons and neutrons continuously throw other subatomic particles – pions – at each other, generating an irresistible attraction.
What ping-pong mutually attracts Trump and Putin? With ideals finished off and lying perfumed with eau impériale , they are attracted by the force of oligarchic particles: power and greed as a subatomic code.
The change is so dizzying that the classical no longer serves us – neither in physics, nor in politics, nor in dictionaries – to interpret the (still) world’s leading power. To understand the quantum forces of the Golden House – formerly known as the White House – one must learn its language and accept the comic book into which Trump has turned his presidency: on Monday he posted on Truth Social the image of his desk in the Oval Office as if it were the Iron Throne from Game of Thrones in its most gothic and dark staging.
Less think tanks and more comics to decipher today’s McHuman. Reservoir Books has just published the Spanish version of Russia, a thousand years of history , an interesting comic conceived and drawn by the French HugoDécrypte, Kris, and Kokopello that starts with the special military operation of the Vikings taking Slavic lands in the year 862 up to the special military operation Russia is trying to carry out today in Ukraine.
In the last panel, reproduced here, Putin appears calling Trump: “Hello? Donald?”… It is the synthesis of the quantum moment we are going through and that confused Einstein: nothing, in the absence of any solid foundation, can today be erected with the rules experienced so far.
Let’s imagine, according to the latest news, how the panel would continue: the telephone ping-pong of pions between two particles in fatal attraction.

PUTIN: Hello? Donald?
TRUMP: Hi Vlad.
PUTIN: Hey, the Iranians are asking me if today is peace or war.
TRUMP: Peace! I bought oil stocks short yesterday. Tomorrow Sunday I will announce a deal so they go back up and I sell… Cash!
PUTIN: Yes, but it’s not clear to me if you have won or lost the war.
TRUMP: We have total control of the Strait of Hormuz.
PUTIN: Sure, sure…
TRUMP: …! And you? How many refineries do you have left unburned, Vlad?
PUTIN: Well, the Ukrainian drones, in your last joint military maneuver, gave you a beating.
TRUMP: Oh, yeah? And is that why you travel more and more towards the Kurils and never towards the Ukrainian impact radius?
PUTIN: Come on, we have a deal.
TRUMP: I keep it. I keep pretending in front of the Europeans, as we agreed: now Patriot yes, now Patriot no. It’s necessary that before the midterms I insult you a little to pretend.
PUTIN: But don’t overdo it, huh? Something like I have disappointed you.
TRUMP: In a few weeks I’ll send Patel to coordinate the division.
PUTIN: The Barbie of the war?
TRUMP: No. The FBI one. The one with eyes out of orbit.
PUTIN: The Gagarin ! I love his look. But hurry up with Greenland, we have to speed up the division of hemispheres and you only know how to win in the Caribbean.
TRUMP: We are testing oil drilling through the ice.
PUTIN: I will test in the Baltic.
TRUMP: In Baltimore?
PUTIN: Oh, Donald! Maps, maps, maps… You always say that with the Europeans an ocean separates you. Remember that with Russia, no, that through the Bering Strait, between our Big Diomede Island and your Little Diomede Island, there are not even four kilometers.
TRUMP: Hey, Vlad, why did we get the small island?
PUTIN : What? Make Diomede Great Again ? Don’t mess with me.
TRUMP: I still don’t understand why you kept the big one.
PUTIN: How’s traveling in a catering container, Donald? Does it smell more like sandwich or tomato juice?
TRUMP: Bitch.

TRUMP: Vlad?… Are you still there?…
