> That both depends on how immediate "immediate" is and how the US will react. Broadly speaking if countries are able to feed their population, keep the lights on, and protect their borders, regardless of access to global markets then they have relatively few existential worries. The USA is one of a few in this category. > but it will most definitely crush any belief in The American Dream or that the US is some kind of world leader. The US is currently re-industrializing as globalism is crumbling, so the long term forecast for the American dream is bright. Globalism is crumbling greatly due to the bipartisan sentiment in the USA being not wanting to police, “lead,” the world any longer. The global population will crash in the coming decades, secessionist movements will rise up in many countries, famine, and resource wars will ensue, and the graphs of global development will go south very quickly. All except in the USA and a relatively few other countries which will feel pain but be able to recover relatively easily. The USA has been artificially propping up vast regions of the globe by making global shipping the safest it has ever been in history; that is ending and no one is going to like the result.
