China has 48,000 km of high speed rail. The USA has 80 km.

 

What does that tell you?

That most everyone in the US has a car and that there are 20,000 airports in the US.

The combined GDP of the G7 countries is now less than the BRICS countries.

And?

If Trump's people keep threatening the sanctity of US debt, then they might turn to another currency to serve as the reserve currency of the world. Most likely the Euro since it floats freely unlike the yuan.

If they did abandon the dollar, the only thing that would make sense would be for them to go with their own currency.

You clearly haven't a clue why there is such a thing as a reserve currency.

I would offer you a link to an authoritative source but we know how that ends up. And I don't feel like spending my time dumbing down some information so you can understand it.

So you have no idea, I thought not.

That tells me Americans are among the chief contributors to climate change. A few more hurricanes and wild fires are needed to get the message across. Or a bigger sea level rise on the eastern seaboard.

 

The bigger the GDP gap gets, the more probable the BRICS will set up a rival reserve currency. That status is the only reason the US can keep printing money, without going into hyperinflation.

Does anyone actually know what 'American' goods, services and products are nowadays? Is John Deere American? Stellantis...? Apple, Kraft Heinz?

When Trump "attacks" the world, does the moron expect the world to sit back and take it?

Trump thinks the rest of the world is cheating America.

 

Nobody forced the US to establish 750 military bases in the rest of the world. America did that to ring-fence the Soviet Union.

 

No one twisted America's arm to export their industries overseas. Their own bean counters did that. Where were Trump's gold sneakers made? Or Elon's Tesla's?

 

Trump assuming the high moral ground in geopolitics is the ultimate in hypocrisy.
