    Why would/should anyone in the international community trust the US after this?

    US diplomacy can turn on a dime depending on who is elected now. The US cannot be trusted beyond the term length of the current president or even current congress.

    The rest of the international community is going to unite and isolate the US. Its not ever going to be good again

      You’re not wrong. I’d never trust the US again unless it became socialist, fixed all the problems within and without, eg national health service, eradicate homelessness and drug addiction, get rid of Guantanamo bay, make reparations to Africa etc.
