John Simpson : 2025 could be year for the history books as Trump shreds global norms.

He says he's putting American interests first , way before everything else.

Everything Trump says about getting peace is music to his ears, he says.

Putin has pointedly backed the idea that Trump really won the 2020 election.

Diplomats say Donald Trump threw away both of his essential cards before the talks even started.

The other card, the diplomat said, was to insist that Ukraine should be allowed to join Nato .

Trump currently has control of a pliant Congress and a conservative Supreme Court .

But in 20 months' time , in November 2026 , there will be mid-term elections in the US .
