    Just to correct: Europe and Asia are decoupling from the US at a breakneck speed. Sure, it’ll take years to reduce our relience of the US, but that delay doesn’t mean that Europe or Asia are being passive about the US.

    Trump’s actions will echo far into the future. With the rate things are going, I doubt the US will have much sway anywhere in the world just ten years from now.

      Breakneck speed would be denying the US access to EU biometric data for visa applications. What gives you the impression that we are decoupling? We need US gas and US AI and US weapons for Ukraine. If anything we are intensifying our bonds.
