I think you are overly optimistic in several points. Trump has already shown that the “ally” thing is meaningless.
We had a free trade agreement (NAFTA) that he didn’t like so he tore it up to negotiate the USMCA. Now he doesn’t like that and is threatening tariffs. As many people are asking “what use is an ally if you can’t trust them to keep their word?”. If they negotiate agreements but refuse to hold up their end of the bargain, what value is the agreement?
Trump has withdrawn from the Paris accord, is talking about withdrawing from NATO, and has threatened to withdraw from the G7 if we don’t let Russia back in.
We have mineral wealth which he is very interested in right now, and a claim to large sections of the North that are becoming valuable for shipping, and which we are not able to defend. So yeah, we are in a bit of trouble. Blithely ignoring the issues is not helpful at this time.

Thanks as well. Also good points.
