For me it would probably be Canada. Seems like we share alot of values with them, and we could do more trading than we do today.

Especially if they also will have tensions with the US, it would be a win win.

But what do you guys think? Northern Africa would be an obvious choice in the future, but I don't know if they're ready.

PS. This is not a post talking about leave the US entirely. Ofc not. It would just be better for us to work with others and expand our worldview a little.

The issue is the far right and their sympathisants. Once those are out of the way, we can talk.

For that the US has to address its problems, like the billionnaires getting richer and richer and somehow there being no nationwide revolution. Media being very fear-focused and demanding to treat others inhumanely is also an issue, alongside with social media algorithms bolstering this.
