For fifty-six years, the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, has been the ultimate gathering of global elites. Billionaire CEOs and heads of state convene at this Swiss ski resort every January to lecture the rest of us on climate change, sustainability, and why we should be happy eating bugs and owning nothing. Yet, this week marks an unprecedented shift—even the liberal media concedes it—sending shockwaves through the entire globalist establishment.
- The Daily Mail declares "The Death of Davos," a headline echoed by the New York Times.
- Trump’s presence signals a complete inversion of global power dynamics, with elites now deferring to him.
- Denmark is boycotting Davos entirely, highlighting the disintegration of the traditional global order.
Take a look at this headline from the Daily Mail: "The Death of Davos." It’s a stunningly provocative headline, but even the New York Times echoes this sentiment: "As Davos Convenes, Deference to Trump Has Replaced Everything." The traditional rhetoric of the World Economic Forum, centered on global integration and climate change, has been replaced by deference to Trump. It's a surrender, not just a policy shift. What we are witnessing isn't merely a change in agenda—it's the complete inversion of global power, and the elites know it.
For decades, the World Economic Forum represented a specific worldview: global integration, multilateral cooperation, climate action, social justice, and ESG mandates. Klaus Schwab's "stakeholder capitalism" touted a corporate "societal purpose" while pursuing policies that de-industrialized Europe and priced ordinary Americans out of home ownership. All of this was part of a scheme for a tiny minority of globalists to become the world’s first trillionaires. Then Trump arrived. The man who built his presidency on "America First," who withdrew from the Paris Climate Accord, and who threatened tariffs on NATO allies if they didn't sell him Greenland. He's the headline speaker at an institution that supposedly promotes everything he opposes.
So why did they invite him? And more importantly—why did he accept? Because Trump isn't going there to join them; he's going to dominate them. He intends to show every CEO, prime minister, and central banker exactly who's in charge now. The evidence is clear: it’s working. Political economist Mark Blyth put it bluntly: "This is the death of Davos. It has no relevance, none whatsoever." Trump is going to Davos to assert dominance, informing them that unless they align with him, they no longer matter. The official Davos program still includes sessions on electric vehicles and climate goals, but those buzzwords—fair taxation, anti-corruption, sustainability, social justice—are gone. Replaced by AI, crypto, and "economic resilience." It is an implicit surrender, an acknowledgment that no set of principles can unite the attendees anymore. The only principle that matters now is: don't cross Donald Trump.

Want proof? Look at who's not there this week: Denmark. America's NATO ally, part of the Western alliance for seventy-five years, is boycotting Davos entirely. Why? Because the World Economic Forum sent invitations to Greenlandic officials and companies as an independent entity, separate from Denmark. Copenhagen called it "a breach of established international norms" and "interference in Denmark's sovereign affairs." The forum is treating Greenland as if it's already broken away from Danish control—Trump's strategy in action. He's made it a fait accompli before Denmark even enters negotiations. He's threatened tariffs starting February 1st on any European nation opposing his Greenland plans. Eight NATO countries, including Denmark, are already on that list, and the EU is scrambling to prepare retaliatory tariffs. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen declared, "Europe will not be blackmailed."
When Trump last appeared at Davos in 2018, the elite class framed it as a "collision of worldviews"—Trump the nationalist versus Davos the globalist. This time, Trump arrives as a civilizationalist, a political titan redrawing the world map. The globalists know their time is over; a new era of civilization states has begun. Trump's speech this Wednesday won’t be about finding common ground. It will be about setting terms: rapid approvals for AI and energy infrastructure in America, deregulation, and tariffs for non-cooperation. An end to the Green New Deal nonsense, and American control of strategic assets like Greenland—whether Europe likes it or not.
And that message is already spreading beyond Europe, even before Trump takes the podium. Analysts predict Trump is about to "terminate the World Economic Forum's influence" and end the era of globalist shenanigans. How? Through two demonstration projects. First: Greenland. Making American control inevitable as global elites scramble. Denmark's boycott is mission accomplished. Second: Election fraud revelations. The recent arrest of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro is opening up evidence about Smartmatic voting systems rigging elections worldwide. If this leads to revelations about 2020 election irregularities in states like Georgia and Arizona, it won't just destroy Democratic credibility. It'll force Senate passage of the SAVE Act, resetting American electoral integrity.
This week, Trump is not negotiating with the global elite. He’s showing them that their entire system—where unelected billionaires and bureaucrats set policy—is over. Trump will walk into their headquarters, declaring their time up, and they'll applaud him for it. We are witnessing the collapse of fifty-six years of globalist consensus, not because Trump convinced them he was right, but because he demonstrated they’re irrelevant without American cooperation and power. Denmark boycotting Davos isn't a protest; it's a symptom. The post-World War II order is being rewritten by a president who threatened military action to acquire territory and imposed tariffs to force compliance. The global elite, gathered in their Swiss ski resort, can do nothing except roll out the red carpet, give him the headline speaking slot, and hope he doesn't dismantle their influence before dessert is served. Fifty-six years of Davos, and it took Donald Trump exactly one appearance to show the world who's really in charge.
