I’m no deal maker, but it could maybe help if the US avoided pissing off its largest customer - Canada:

“ The top five purchasers of U.S. goods exports in 2022 were: Canada ($356.5 billion), Mexico ($324.3 billion), China ($150.4 billion), Japan ($80.2 billion), and the United Kingdom ($76.2 billion). U.S. goods exports to the European Union 27 were $350.8 billion.”

lol, they're pissing off 4 of those actively, or am I getting the count wrong?

Depends on how you count. There are tariffs on everyone for steel and aluminium. There are specific tarrifs on Canada, Mexico, EU, and China. Trump promises to back off from NATO, which pisses off pretty much everyone on the European continent (EU or otherwise). The recent counch incident in the Oval Office wasn’t taken well in the Europe as well.

> Canada, Mexico, EU, and China

Which are, for the record, the four biggest trading partners, and over half of all the US's international trade.

At this rate the US will be threatening Moldova to give it good trade terms or else it'll huffily take its business elsewhere to Montenegro.

Well, there are talks about a mineral deal with Russia, others also mention gas and oil. Who knows, maybe it can grow into an all encompassing trade deal. Very good for America. The best.
