It's sad to see how Trust and Relationships built up over decades are destroyed within one or two Years of internal political skirmishes. The damage done to the Trustworthiness of the US by this cannot be overestimated. Close to irreparable. Will also be disastrous for building alliances against China. Who after this mess would put all bets on the US to bail him out should he support the US against China and get under pressure from them consequently. Absolutely f**king stoopid.
