Trump has left Europe looking for alternatives to US weapons, even if they are worse, weakening the alliance and losing US sales. If the world does take big strides away from US weapons, the US will have lost a lot of leverage.

Trump praised Xi like a sycophant. Xi did not return the words.
Trump has accelerated American decline. Further polarizing the country, getting the US into a so-far unsuccessful war with Iran, weakening relationships with allies, removing quality immigrants along with the bad ones, increasing corruption, weakening the ability of the country to tax its wealthy citizens, broad and unstrategic tariffs that weaken the US economy, etcetera…

“Previous efforts by Trump to get China to purchase more US goods have fallen short, raising questions about whether the latest pledges will be fulfilled. China failed to meet its commitments under an agreement Trump brokered in 2020 to buy an extra $200 billion in US agricultural, energy and manufactured products over a two-year period. The Covid-19 pandemic complicated that effort but critics said the targets were unrealistic.
China has recently turned to cheaper Brazilian soybeans after meeting the initial purchasing volume from the US agreed to in last year’s trade truce between Washington and Beijing.
While the fresh discloser will likely be welcomed by farmers, who were seeking more clarity from the latest summit, the amount may not be large enough to satisfy growers looking to turn around tough economic conditions.
Farmers have been struggling for years with relatively low crop prices and high costs. Pressures have been compounded by geopolitical tensions including Trump’s tariffs, and most recently by a surge in fertilizer costs linked to the conflict in Iran.”

Trump’s visit to China achieved essentially nothing. The countries’ problems are too deep to be achieved in a presidential visit.
