For good or bad, it's still the legitimately elected US government. The Trump government represented the population of the USA, and was elected in accordance with its own rules. The consequences or fruits thereof belong to the citizens of the nation.

I understand - but to use that as an example of a pattern of the US government significantly abusing their US dollar hegemony doesn't equate.
