Hello 'Pussy' it's Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and Pippi Longstocking:
You have managed to turn America First into America Isolated.
In
pulling out of the Paris climate accord, you created a vacuum
of global leadership that presents ripe opportunities to allies and
adversaries alike to reorder the world’s power structure. Your decision
is perhaps the greatest strategic gift to the Chinese, who are eager to
fill the void that Washington is leaving around the world on everything
from setting the rules of trade and environmental standards to financing
the infrastructure projects that give Beijing vast influence.
