One of if not the biggest problem with US foreign policy is they're helping China become a super power that will in the longterm become far, far, more powerful economically, militarily, politically etc than the US.  The rise in GDP of China has been astronomical the last couple of the decades. 

If the Chinese can manage to obtain average incomes even half of that as the US or any other western country they would become far more powerful than the US or any other country.  A country with 1.3 billion people + dramatically fast-rising economy + brutal totalitarian government = big trouble for ALL OF US.  Canada should be very nervous.

The US is sowing the seeds of its own loss of dominance.  At least Trump is kind of standing up to China, though not sure how effective that's been, but it's better that Obama who never wanted to rock the boat with anyone, god bless him but he was just too nice.
