We shall see won't we? I wouldn't discount dollar hegemony and control of things like SWIFT given the replacements are years away still. For that matter I wouldn't discount how Europeans and a few other vassals may be happy or coerced into offering themselves as firewood for the US empire to keep it going.

Notice to the downvoters: I never said this would work I just said I think this is their thinking. But apparently even the idea that the reactionaries have some sort of cogent thought or plan in their head is anathema to far too many people here. I'm sorry to say there is at times in the western left a kind of circle-jerk of acceptable logic. It pays to at times attempt to get into the heads of our enemies.

I never said this would work I just said I think this is their thinking.

It would have been best to clarify this in your initial comment.
