On the European side, I'd like to see some of our allies show some backbone and at least pretend that they're genuinely outraged. Sever some treaties, kill off some contracts with US businesses, something, anything to demonstrate that they take their own sovereignty and culture seriously. Of course, they're all in on the game too. For all their indignation it's really just showmanship.
On the other hand, if Mexico were serious about an embargo, that would have significant impacts. More so on Mexico, but it would still affect the USA materially.
I suppose over the past couple months, this whole debacle has cemented my opinion that everyone that matters --in terms of their supposed indignation and objection to all that has been revealed-- is already the USA's bitch. The only groups with balls enough to snub the USA are the ones that already have little to lose.
