Rubio named it: "managed decline." Barbara Boyd traces the 1975 Trilateral blueprint that built Europe's censorship machine to enforce it — and explains why Trump is dismantling all of it.
At the Munich Security Forum, Secretary of State Marco Rubio publicly rejected America’s role in managing the West’s “decline,” calling deindustrialization a deliberate policy and warning that mass migration is destabilizing the West. He then traveled to Slovakia and Hungary to back Prime Minister Robert Fico and Viktor Orban, negotiating U.S. nuclear plant deals and signaling support against EU pressure. The episode links Europe’s Digital Services Act and reported EU election interference to a broader censorship apparatus aimed at U.S. elections in 2026 and 2028. It traces the ideological roots to a 1975 Trilateral Commission blueprint, citing Samuel Huntington’s call for “desirable limits” to democracy and programs to lower workers’ expectations. Barbara Boyd argues Trump is dismantling this model by rolling up USAID and USIP, seeking to defund NED, and countering Europe’s censorship infrastructure.

While Democrats trash the President abroad, Rubio challenges Europe on sovereignty, industrialization, and Western civilization's future—offering partnership or separation.
