By embracing Russia and castigating Ukraine, President Donald Trump has rattled U.S. allies around the world, causing them to question if Washington is still a trusted partner.
Governments in Europe and democracies around the world are treating Trump’s actions and statements not as provocative posturing, but as an earthquake.
With American reliability in doubt, some European nations and other countries may seek alternative partners and markets, possibly in China, Bindenagel said.
This is the opposition’s strategy. Trump is bad because he’s siding with China.
trump’s opposition is confusing at times; he’s somehow both a russian shill and now he’s a chinese asset, despite the upcoming trade war.
Which makes sense, when he is putins lapdog.
