In before the Free Traitors.
The US has only (only lol) $20trillion in actual debt. I very seriously doubt the rest of the world has a combined $260trillion.
If you're counting "total government commitments", don't. They will never bee paid in full and neither will treasury debt.
That's certain because it's not possible.
But the rest of your analysis is correct. We hold all the cards, but you didn't mention the trump card: the largest market in the world and the largest capital stock/net worth.
Nobody will engaged a trade war with us if they believe we intend to win.
Nobody.
That's YUUUGE!
So I guess this means the Chinese will not be laundering secret campaign donations to Trump like they did for Bill Clinton?
Clear as a sun shinny day to me. Go Trump!!!!!!!
