A draft charter obtained by The Times of Israel suggests an expanded global role, with invitations sent to dozens of nations and mixed international reactions.
The full text of a charter for President Donald Trump’s proposed Board of Peace sounds suspiciously like plans to make himself “king of the world,” according to a political theorist.
A charter was sent out with invitations to dozens of world leaders, asking them to join the U.S. president on a panel to oversee the postwar management of Gaza, but the full text, obtained by The Times of Israel, conspicuously does not mention Gaza.
“So, the ‘Board of Peace’ [sic] not only doesn’t mention Gaza in particular; it proposes to make Donald Trump in particular (not the president of the United States) king of the world,” said Jacob T. Levy, a political theory professor at McGill University.
With this project in Gaza, the interference in Venezuela and the threat to Greenland and other countries in the world, Trump reveals his obsession with being recognized as the most powerful person in the world.
Levy dug into the full text of the charter and analyzed its rules, which he believes sketch out a plan to make the 79-year-old former reality TV star the ruler of the global conglomerate and then pass that title down to one of his heirs.
“Membership is subject to a 3-year term limit unless the member state either pays a billion-dollar bribe or the Chairman — entirely unilaterally — decides to extend it,” Levy wrote. “The Chairman may choose to *terminate* a member state’s membership (even if it has paid!), which requires a 2/3 vote to override.”
Decisions shall be made by a majority of the member states that are present and voting, but subject to the approval of the chairman, and Levy dismissed that arrangement as absurd.
“That’s not how collective decision-making works,” Levy wrote. “That’s a curia regis or the medieval privy council.”
Trump himself shall serve as inaugural chairman, according to the charter, and the chairman shall at all times designate his own successor.
“So Don Jr will still be in charge even if Kamala Harris wins the presidency in a landslide in 2028,” Levy wrote.
