Allies saw that they could trust us once again after Bush. My guess is the notion that they can trust the American voter to make wise choices is what now have them determined to succeed. The interesting part is that Russia is involved when it was them that started the Trump lunacy. Russia wants us out of the way as a great power, it will use any device to bring that about, weakening our currency and making us a beggar nation meets Russia's ends nicely.
