@Avenger also on Trump has no idea on how world affairs work....an example is in nuclear weapons.
The biggest deterrence to being attacked, is having nuclear weapons.
The US has supported security in Europe and Asian countries from China, Russia through NATO and other treaties. Generally all these countries have the some democratic principles.
If the US can no longer be trusted, as they now take the side of Russia (which potentially gives the green light to China to take Taiwan) countries like Germany, Japan and South Korea who aren't nuclear powers, will now need seek to obtain their own nuclear weapons to protect themselves (similar to the reason Iran and North Korea try so hard to develop their own)...
There was a reason the US took on a security leadership role in the Europe/Asia....more nuclear weapons is a disaster and adds to a period of instability in World affairs.... Trump is creating a dangerous vacuum....
