Let’s say Trump wins and Europe loses its security guarantee from the US.

Then the EU beefs up its military and coordinate its combined forces and military production up to the point that they are no longer in need of US military assistance in future conflicts.

What will be the ramifications for the US if this was to play out in terms of trade, geo political influence etc.

They've already started to build up their arsenal in case of a Trump re-election.

I don't think them building a big arsenal to a point that they don't need the US would affect trade relations other than they won't buy as many weapons and ammo from the US.

What would have a big impact on trade and geo political relations is Trump being re-elected.
