US vs. "globalism" is one of the strangest things I've seen in my lifetime. US is the #1 beneficiary of globalization, and its driving force
To hear a narrative where globalization is cast as a foreign plot against US is baffling. Americans have benefitted more than anyone else.

Would be on par with hearing European powers circa 1920 complain that colonization is a plot of the colonized to exploit European wealth
-
We'll watch the US become painfully aware of this in time as the rest of the world lessens their dependence on them.
