This is why as a European I low key wish that the right wing trend of the US continues (Trump gets another term etc) because the isolationist policies that come from it will be a net benefit to us in the long run. The reduction in US's soft power due to some region's reliance on US money will open up other global players to take their place and break the current chokehold. More competition and options in that vein will be a net benefit overall. I'm not saying it won't be painful in the short term but it'll be worth it. As a moon shot it might even mellow China out a bit if it is further tied to maintaining good relationships with the rest of the world
