Adding on to earlier comments today,

Bottom-line repeated. What we are seeing unfold will make the DOGE effort easier.

As the US isolates, we can cut our military budget by at least a third.

1. Internally, Wall Street and Silicon Valley wizards and their games will be first isolation casualty.

2. The rest of the World will abandon the US with new vigorous alliances arising.

3. Some likely and surprising alliances may be:

4. Canada/Europe/Greenland/Middle East;

5. China/Mexico/Latin America, etc.
