Our hegemony is overrated. The only thing we have way more than them is military hardware and soldiers. Thats not the measure of a successful country. Unfortunately for us, we are going to find out real soon that if the rest of the G7 bands together and impose retaliatory tariffs, we will lose and fall into an economic downturn.
