At a time where our allies are seriously considering getting along more with China and others, this is a terrible, terrible idea for U.S. foreign relations. People seem to think the U.S. can stand alone. Nope.

It does explain why the EU doesn't want to outright shut the door on China. The U.S. right now is acting like a bipolar person off their meds. One term they're reasonable and rational, the next they're throwing shit at the wall and talking about leaving their allies out to dry.

Nobody thinks the US can stand alone. Traitors want the US to fail.
