If Trump really has neutered the US and got into bed with Russia, the US bases in Europe can be closed. Just end the leases.

Then start to make moves to remove the US dollar from the global reserve currency.

Relocate tech and financial services.

It would take decades but I’d rather look to a more assertive Europe than an abusive US.

I don't think it will take decades, but rather months if push came to shove in replacing the US Dollar for something more identifiably common to the rest of the world... like the Euro even. Let the USA have their own currency but it's value is based on nothing but good looks, red ties and a lot of orchestrated charm, but not gold.
