I think the reason it looks like there isn't a short term strategy, is because there isn't a short term strategy.

Agreed. No one has thought this through, at least not in this administration. And now we're getting vague "we will run the country" without any visible means of doing so. Just like when they promised to "repeal Obamacare and replace it with something better", even though they never came up with "something better".

I'm not even sure if this administration realizes that this could disrupt oil for China (which it could...so that's one positive). I doubt anyone is thinking that far ahead.

If the next POTUS is a Dem, and the ICC has issued a warrant for the Felon, I think we should hand him over to the ICC. He should probably also be impeached since he didn't consult with Congress. More than one senator is complaining about that.
