The article examines the phenomenon of politicians around the world imitating the mindset of Donald Trump, as well as the attraction they hold for certain voters. It is observed that many leaders seek to captivate the public with spectacular appearances and empty rhetoric, rather than relying on political depth and substantial proposals. Specifically, examples are given from Cyprus (Fidias Panagiotou), Argentina (Javier Milei), and Greece (Stefanos Kasselakis), where politicians were presented as “new” and “different” but ultimately disappointed or failed to meet expectations. The author points out that the heroization and idealization of political figures can lead to regression and failure. Additionally, the article refers to Israeli dissatisfaction with the United States and the contradictions between the statements and actions of Israeli leaders. The criticism focuses on the need for independence and self-sufficiency, but also on the practical dependence on American aid. Overall, the article warns of the dangers of superficial politics, personality cults, and imitating successful but controversial leaders. It emphasizes the need for substantial policy, responsible leaders, and realistic expectations.
