A lot of people seem to be missing the point that the reputational damage that is being done by the Trump administration right now is nontrivial and will not be unraveled quickly. The creation of a new economic trade zone between S.A. and the EU, the halting of the EU/US trade deal, Canada creating new trade deals with China...all of this spells disaster for the US. Despite what the right wing thinks, all countries play together in a big sandbox with each other and this idiocy and isolationism is not going to make us more wealthy or more safe.
