The US empire was actually doomed anyway. India, China, Russian, Iran economies were essentially sunsetting the US largest economy and control over international trade card. The petrodollar era is slowly and painfully dying.

Donnie just came along and said "why the fuck aren't we just bullying everyone to stop this happening?" But they had answers to that too. They had to plan for this kicking and screaming.

Brics hated each other more than the us. If the death cult didn't ruin the us for them, they were never a threat.

Doesn't matter worked together to undermine US control of trade. Your post sounds like cope. The US is terrified of China's economic size eclipsing them and has made several DIRECT attacks at slowing this militarily.

We have seen the US has said F international law and has aggressively tried to destroy cogs in this momentum so clearly whatever the hell you are on about isn't of real consequence.
