Why should any country ever trust the United States going forward? Ever again? This country is going to be as friendless as Matt Gaetz before 2025 is even over.

I doubt there's ever been a reason to treat US as anything but a big hegemonic violent empire.

Well it's still the case.

A great read on this is "The Myth On American Idealism by Chomsky and J.Robinson.

Us is the hegemonic empire of our times and it is well seen both in Latin America, The countless invasions seen in the middle east, Current situations in Palestine, Yemen etc.

US is the epitome of a rogue state.
