More: Trump has in the meantime made himself " and the US " into an international laughing stock, never mind the damage that policy uncertainty is inflicting on the global economy. You'd be forgiven for thinking that chaos is itself the policy goal.
Repeatedly forced to row back on its demands and aspirations, the White House has been left looking back-footed and ridiculous.

Elect an Obese Orange Clown whose claim to fame is having "earned" a net worth half what it would have been if he had invested his inheritance in an index fund.
Act shocked when he is terrible at business, other than the shorts he made of our stock market for intentionally crashing it.

Trump should write a new book,
The Art of Losing the Deal.
How one man's stupidity cost America trillions in trade deals.

This was to be expected. Tariffs drive up the cost of goods and when applied as haphazardly as they've been applied they spook the market.

One has to wonder what Trump will have to do in order to get China back to the table.
Best of luck to Taiwan.
