You know what America has always been known for? Rule of law, political stability, and global leadership with respect to democratic values.
Those bedrocks of American exceptionalism are being undermined now -- it's not a political statement; it is a factual statement.
China, Europe, and every other country with properly qualified and competent technocrats are going to diversify away from the US -- permanently. It's not a Trump issue; it's an American issue. America has shown that its electorate is collectively capable of making decisions that are antithetical to those three things that America, heretofore, as always been known for.
I hope I'm wrong, because I find myself really sad thinking about it these days.
