If we had a real President and Congress, they’d be United in telling every member of BRICS and those looking to join that:
the US is more or less closed.
Diplomatic staff in all countries will be dramatically reduced and their presence in the us is going to be cut drastically.
No more visas, or any kind, to any students or IT folks looking to come over
No more Saudis coming over to party in LA, NYC, MiamI, etc. They want to go to school in a foreign country, let them go to China.
As for military bases in want of those countries, time to bring everyone home and all the gear. No more advisors. No more training. No more anything.
If we had a real President and Congress. We don’t so we’ll continue to be treated like the town bicycle.
“Diplomatic staff in all countries will be dramatically reduced and their presence in the us is going to be cut drastically.’
If you’d knew what the US “diplomats” are doing, you’d also know that everybody would join BRICS just for a sake of it.
