The EU also started to fix their lax regulations on US tech companies, as well as developing alternatives to US services.
Basically every bit of soft power that the US has over the EU will be dismantled within the next decade.
Just look at the military budgets.
The US had a good thing going. They pay for the military and in return can influence decisions and get trade benefits. It has been like that for decades. But Trump pissed it all away
