A NATO without the US would have many benefits for its members, especially the downstream economic effects it would have.

NATO doesn't give a lot of economic benefits. A hostile US and Russia would give us the increased defense spending we already have, at least we wouldn't have to buy US equipment.

However it is funny that the US was the entire problem with the TPP and Trump saved us from that. However we still have the CUSMA agreement to free ourselves from.
