It’s a daisy chain, other central banks or more likely the Fed via proxy.

The Fed has been a backstop, buying all US debt that others didn't want (at low interest rates, of course). If the Fed has all the debt, and we just disintegrate it (along with its balance sheet), poof, what happens? It can't be that easy.
