It's high time the world stuck together and turned its collective back on the #USA in every way.
(While watching out for their backstabbing attempts, of course.)
Even if the #US makes it through this #Trump nightmare, the US must NEVER be trusted again. The US is neither reliable or safe.

Only the #GreatPowers matter. This will make the world poorer, not just materially, but in joy, creativity, liveable lives.
Small countries, like Norway, have benefited hugely from the international order that Trump is tossing aside. Paul Krugman looking back at what we are losing: https://open.substack.com/pub/paulkrugman/p/decline-and-fall-of-the-american .
