What exactly was conceded?
Was it that Merkel will continue take up the banner of traditional Western leadership while the US goes it alone because that is what happened.
Merkel? Ha. History will be a harsh judge of her.

I just want to add some impressions Trump made on me at G20:
- nationalistic.
- protectionalistic.
- isiolationistic.

please tell me, how do you think don and his forever-supporters will go down in history?
The US is still in the G20 isn't it?? So please explain how we are suddenly on the outside???
How many military bases does German have in how many countries on Earth? How many Aircraft carriers do they have to project their force again?? Yea I thought not.
You got to have balls and fists to be a leader, as far as I see it the USA still has both more than anybody else out there with only Russia and China as competition as number 2 and 3.
Please cite where somehow USA appears weak or not in a position of leading???

That sounds good to me.
America has always been and hopefully will always be an alternative to European socialism and authoritarianism. No one wants America to be Europe. That is why people came here and still want to come here.

As long as American Exceptionalism doesn't include exporting good jobs-switching to a service econ-pricing essential services above anyone's ability to pay and systematically removing freedoms to insure our safety. Then ya you are right.

Some of Trumps most ardent supporters here on ATS aren't
Americans at all . They are Chinese and Russian paid trolls pushing state sponsored propaganda on the unwitting .
