The US will retaliate. It will hurt, both in pure economic terms and in quality of life for all people.
But if we wish to be principled, I don't see how we can wait until we are no longer dependent on the US in all sectors. The US is acting now, so surely we must react appropriately now, also?

If countries wish to have an international rules-based order, then the same standards must be applied to all countries. Even to countries we once thought of as our friends and allies. This is in no way an indictment of all US citizens, many of whom are wonderful people.
