I think people are looking for the photo-op leaders as they conceive stability even though that stability is just a mirage. Trump team is not doing that so it appears like chaos is the rule.

Canada and Mexico are not the US allies. They are okayish neighbors but will stab the US on the back at a moment notice. Between, there was a reportage somewhere on youtube talking about the auto industry and tariffs. Apparently, Canada used tariffs back in the 80s to force the US to build a car industry in Canada.
