But could even America's closest friends ever be persuaded that an America always pursuing its self-interest could be relied upon to serve their interests, too, as some kind of "second-order effect"?

Well, that's easy to answer. The entire history of US-Europe relations since WWII has been Europe benefitting from America acting in defense of its interests. As America acts to make the world safer for Americans, it makes the world safer for Europeans. I would think that self-evident.
