Saudi would be food without the US backing. US is cold blooded so maybe by proxy we link with Iran and they get active. Easy propaganda due to 9/11

The world is also sick and tired of using the US dollar as the currency of trade..

Americans dont realize it, but Trump's America first bullshyt policies and rhetoric sounds great to US voters but is what hastened America's isolation from the rest of the world.

Some of y'all don't really understand geo politics from a non US standpoint. The dollar will be more susceptible to fluctuating across the board,speculation from those other then and new currency trade agreements that are not governed by the current flows of the US dollar across petro or other important 21st century resources. Isolationist propaganda won't help, bending over even more deeply for China won't help. The tribes are at the gate and pounding on the fortified entrance. US needs to tighten their strategic partnerships but that won't happen with the past as a guideline for future deals if the dollar loses some of its footing across the board,BRICS isn't helping,China and Russia getting a permanent foothold in Africa and South America isn't good news since EU Europe is trying not to implode under the political earthquake of the rise to power by the far right populists in Germany,France,Italy,Hungary,Denmark, Holland and so on. Trump will have to deal with a different geo political landscape in 2025 and the stakes are higher than his time.
