What’s frustrating is liberals instead of having a chance (though I will say Obama wsa able to do it in health care and LGBT rights), but instead of being able to move forward, it seems that yet another Dem president will be stuck cleaning up a mess. It’s going to take someone with great people skills to clean up the mess of alienated allies that Trump has left in our wake.

The consequence of Trumps action is that the US will no longer be negotiating from a position of leadership. Instead, we will just be one more voice at the table. Where this will really hurt is, as the US refuses to take necessary actions on its part, countries such as those in Europe (and China), will have fewer reasons to hold back on things like blocking imports from the US for noncompliance.

While this will bode well for some things (countries should be less afraid to stand up to us for things like invading other countries), overall the world is going to be more fractured for a while, which will lead to more regional conflicts.
