Instead, he's managed to piss off our closest ally (Britain) in regards to how we handled the withdrawal from Afghanistan and our oldest ally (France) in regards to this new agreement between ourselves, the British and Australia.


You do know the UK is a co-signatory of the US-Australian pact right?

Meaning, while this may have thrown a wrench into US-French relations, it may have helped restore faith in US-UK relations.

Edit: Maybe “restore faith” is a bit too optimistic at this point, but it is technically the US-UK-Australian defense pact, so the UK still seems willing to go along with us as a major military partner.

So what? Britain is a member of the FVEYs alliance, too. They are SUPPOSED to be one of our closest allies by treaty. We shouldn't have to hold a carrot out on a stick to get them to continue to like us.
