All the talking guests are missing the point. This is a war which we, the US, will win (in the short term as nations are concerned). Since the world (Europe and the world — because of our tactics for controlling nations) is seeking to overthrow the the dollar (which will die in the end), they are at war with us. But our “ace in the cards” is to stop other nations from continuing their income from selling goods to the US (unless they play ball with us). By applying tariffs, we will be able to cause businesses to close in other countries (cutting off the paychecks of many of their citizens) which will be a catalyst to social unrest within those countries (although there are other variables involved in their social collapse). These countries will then look for solutions with the US and the world — leading them to turn to us (the superpower of the world). If they play ball, they may have a chance to postpone this kind of catastrophe. Social unrest may result in many nations though because of the the Keynesian policies of printing money and the nations being “angry” with each other.
