"Trump’s tariff threats could destabilize the global economy: Trump’s protectionist policies threaten to radically unbalance the balance of payments and exchange rates throughout the world..."

American/western "deciders" reason in a stark provincial manner; they are unable to grasp the complexity of worldwide interactions and changes. The lack of responsibility has degraded the "deciders" into unruly and capricious children mentally. They still hope for an uninterrupted continuation of Looting operations.

The School of Hard Knocks is open 24/7. The first signal would be default in international payments. I can see a claim being made to force majeure with finger pointing to the US for creating that outcome.

The canary in this coal mine is likely Wall Street.
