I just learned that he apparently want to impose a new economic order on the world where every country basically becomes subservient to the US, but first they need crazy tariffs to make them all beg for access to the US market. I don't think it will work, and instead the global economy will move on without the US.
I wonder if we soon hear EU (or some of them) wanting to join/associate with BRICS. The BRICS has been futilely trying to get rid of dollar, and Trump seems to have just done them a solid here.
If China, however it is hard for CCP, just tone down internal oppression a couple notches and, that is an easy part for China, guarantees to Europe non-invasion by Russia, the EU may turn East wholesale. Add to that China's hold on Africa and Iran.
Speaking about Trump's declared goal of weakening China - you don't weaken your opponent by isolating yourself from your allies and turning them into allies of your opponent, quite an opposite.
