Not could, will. The cat's outta the bag and nobody views us as a trustworthy trading partner now.
You can't unfuck this, it's Donald's baby now. He can try to abort it all he wants but the damage is done.
He’ll just tell his MAGAts Joe Biden is the father and they’ll believe it.
That's one of the things that confuses the fuck out of me. Why is Trump wholesale pulling us out of the international economy that we created? You can't just say "China bad" when we literally set the stage for this by moving production to China.
I see no outcome where a new administration snaps trading partners back to thinking we're reliable. Trump has singlehandedly caused the collapse of U.S. hegemony under the guise of checks notes making us great again.
We're a failed state. But at least we got some red hats out of China first.
