Just for your own education, before I answer your question, your opening statement should be “How dare Australia …”
Now to this question:
Go ahead, you’re just pushing all 194 other countries of the world further away from the shitshow that is trumpistan.
And once the Chinese get a taste of grass fed hormone and chemical free Australian beef, do you think that they will ever want to go back to the slurry that is USA prime beef?
Start pushing Australia too far and suddenly your shared bases at Pine Gap and Exmouth and your berthing rights in Darwin, may look a little shaky, but you won’t need them since you are shrinking back into the “I don’t know anyone and nobody knows me” mode of isolationism
What did you think was going to happen?
Did you think all the Australian cattle farmers were going to say shit the yanks don’t want our beef anymore might as well shoot the herd, sell the farm and go live in a retirement home?
OR
They could say there’s a big wide world full of other customers out there let’s sell to one of them
The rest of the world is gradually starting to realise they don’t need the USA anymore you probably think that’s a good thing but it should terrify you.
