The tariffs Trump imposed on Indian goods reflect more than policy — they mirror his soul. In one breath, he declares: “India is been, they are my friends.” A fractured tongue hissing through broken grammar, the sound of a serpent speaking in contradictions. And from behind the smile, the tariffs strike — venom from sharpened teeth, the poison of disrespect that kills every claimed friendship at its root. The short story Fort Knox: The Greatest Heist of All Time explores a mind shaped by such duplicity. Its epilogue points to a gift from Indian culture — a quiet wisdom that may yet help the world survive the betrayal of false allies.
