Intro: When in Delhi, Do as the MAGA Do

Just when you thought American diplomacy couldn’t get any more reality-TV, Donald Trump has decided to send Sergio Gor—his former personnel chief and close adviser—to represent the United States in India. That’s right, the guy who helped staff the Trump administration is now being asked to staff an entire embassy. In India. A country with 1.4 billion people, nuclear weapons, and a deep love for cricket and chai—not chaos and campaign hats.

It’s like replacing your yoga instructor with a WWE announcer. Sure, both wear stretchy pants, but only one knows how to pronounce “Namaste” without sounding like they’re ordering off a Taco Bell secret menu.

Who Is Sergio Gor? And Why Is He Wearing a Sherwani?

Sergio Gor is best known for being Trump’s personnel whisperer—meaning he helped pick the people who picked the people who picked the people who got fired. He’s also co-founder of Winning Team Publishing, which sounds like a motivational poster but is actually a MAGA merch machine.

Now, Gor’s heading to India, a country currently navigating strained relations with Washington over trade, tech, and TikTok bans. So naturally, Trump thought, “Let’s send someone who knows how to run a book tour.”

Diplomatic Experience? Nah, He’s Got Vibes

Let’s talk qualifications. Sergio Gor has never served in the Foreign Service. He’s never been an ambassador. He’s never even been caught in a diplomatic scandal—which, in Trumpworld, is basically a résumé gap.

But he has hosted book signings, organized MAGA rallies, and probably knows how to say “chai latte” with conviction. So, naturally, he’s the perfect choice to navigate one of the most complex geopolitical relationships on Earth.

India’s Reaction: Confused, Concerned, and Probably Googling ‘Sergio Gor’

Indian officials are reportedly “watching the nomination closely,” which is diplomatic code for “What the actual hell?” The country has spent decades building a nuanced relationship with the U.S., and now it’s being asked to shake hands with a guy whose last job involved organizing book launches for Donald Trump Jr.

This is like preparing for a chess match and finding out your opponent brought Uno cards.

What Could Go Wrong? (Spoiler: Everything)

• Trade Talks: Gor shows up with a stack of MAGA hats and asks if India wants to “buy in bulk.”
• Defense Agreements: He tries to negotiate arms deals using NFTs.
• Cultural Exchange: He invites Bollywood stars to Mar-a-Lago and insists they perform “YMCA.”

Imagine Gor standing next to India’s foreign minister and saying, “We’re here to strengthen ties, build walls, and maybe open a Trump Tower in Mumbai.”

The Bigger Picture: MAGA Diplomacy Goes Global

This nomination isn’t just about India. It’s about the Trump administration’s approach to foreign policy: loyalty over expertise, branding over substance, and vibes over actual diplomacy.

India deserves a seasoned diplomat. Someone who understands the region, the culture, and the stakes. Instead, it’s getting a guy who probably thinks “BRICS” is a new protein bar.

Closing Thoughts: Curry, Chaos, and Campaign Hats

In the end, Sergio Gor’s nomination is peak Trump: bold, baffling, and bizarrely on-brand. It’s a reminder that in MAGA-world, diplomacy is just another stage for the show. And the show must go on—even if it’s being broadcast live from New Delhi with a red hat and a confused translator.

So buckle up, India. America’s sending you a new ambassador. He may not know your history, your politics, or your language—but he does know how to throw a book party. And in Trumpworld, that’s basically foreign policy.
