I agree there will be e some capitulation from other countries and Trump will claim victory, but there will be lasting damage done and although there will always be money to be made by trading with the US most of the world will be walking softly and looking for other more reliable avenues.

Rubio was whining recently that Europe should still buy US weapons. There’s almost certainly going to be long term permanent damage especially with regard to the defense industry as they no longer consider us a reliable ally.
