That's mostly how it was during the last US presidential term. The president even said that "America is back" (1)

The fact is, it didn't last. America going away was not a one-off. It happened a second time, worse. The lesson that the USA just is a country that does this from time to time. People in the rest of the world who learn that lesson will prepare for the next time.

As another US president accurately said: "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice ... you can't get fooled again."
