I wish more nations would start severing ties currently, or at least sanctioning, imposing tariffs, refusing to do business with American based businesses. Hopefully people in other nations are already avoiding purchasing as much US product as they can. It won’t bankrupt the oligarchs but it’ll get passed on to the rest of us. Conservatives will abide all sorts of cruelty and injustice so long as people they don’t like are getting hurt. But you’ll never find a bigger “victim” than a conservative when the leopards arrive. His loyalists won’t turn on him but the ones who tolerated the hate because they thought it would benefit them will, and if they have to suffer business losses, foreclosures, and poverty as a result, good.
