Who is even writing this?

We don't need more leverage over our allies like Japan, Europe, or South Korea.

We need them over Russia and China.

- In SEA over 40% of gas stations in Laos have closed,

- Cambodia and Thailand have started rationing and price controls

- India, Pakistan and Bangladesh face rising prices and emergency conservation

- SK/Japan remain exposed to disruptions.

China can get just get their oil from Russia. And Russia got their export control removed...

And China is playing arms dealer like what US did in WW1 right now.

Why are we screwing over our own supply chains to help Russia/Israel out?

They're called allies for a reason, and we don't need more leverage over them.

If you really wanted to weaponize this:

-> Secure supply chains first, pour funding into rare earths/precursors like Vietnam/South America and other places.

-> Pour funding into refinery processing from SK/Japan/Canada/US

-> Develop crude/processing in Venezuela First

-> Build out alternative trade route:

Which will take 3-5 years min.

Then you can go blowing stuff up then go threatening European $ASML(ASML.US), Japanese $Arm(ARM.US), US $NVIDIA(NVDA.US), Taiwan $Taiwan Semiconductor(TSM.US) type chokepoints over China/Russia all together.

Again:

America First relies on:

-securing own supply chains in Assembly Thailand,

-Semiconductors in South Korea, -Chemical from Japan,

-Foundries in Taiwan,

-Rare Earths from Canada,

- high-end equipment from Europe

and others to make United States stronger.

Then you weaponize that all together against our enemies.

You can't just blow OUR OWN SUPPLY CHAINS and Relations around the world up then say America is becoming more dominant?
