That was then. This is the now. Today's world is not the 50s and 60s. US was used to buy good behavior. There was a time the United States would find a few coins in a drawer and give to the minnows and they would toe the line. The huge market. The hard currency made many countries export their way out of poverty. Once the Europeans and Japan, port-WWII, succeeded got reconstructed and rich, the Asians followed the same path. This gave smaller economies, without an internal market, a road to affluence. Today, although still very big, the US has to contend with bigger economies. And the US is reacting. No more Mr. Nice guy that solved the problem by sending weapons, a few gunboats plus cash.. No more cartel of the currencies, aka the G-7 that could solve world economy imbalances by cutting a backroom deal. See Plaza ad Louvre Accords. Today is: You want to deal with your adversaries? Go talk to them. Do you want to defend your countries? Pay for it. How about profits? Get it on your internal markets. See Mexico, Germany, South Korea and Canada tariffs.
