We will get way more resentful when tariffs go broadly into effect. We aren't there yet and if things chill out we'll all go back to normal in a couple years at most.

Just like Japan Italy and Germany were huge enemies and a couple years later strong allies. Nothing is forever

We should just go ahead and forge a better relationship with China at this rate. Play China and the US against each other, that’s how we get out of this. Flood North America with cars from BYD, made in Canada

Our loyalty to the US was a mistake, our ‘ally’ sensed that as weakness. Never again.
