I don’t believe that the US-India relationship has deteriorated beyond repair. There are ways of handling Trump, even if the Pakistanis have outplayed us this year.
American president did not name oil company which will lead exploration & development of Pakistan’s oil reserves. The bilateral tie has seen an uptick especially after Op Sindoor.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
In what Pakistan military claimed to be a show of ‘depth, cordiality of the dialogue,’ the Trump-Munir meeting went on for two hours despite being scheduled for an hour.
Speaking to reporters at White House ahead of scheduled meet with Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Munir, Trump also says, ‘We’re going to make a trade deal with Modi of India’.
Trump was first to announce India-Pakistan ceasefire, even before the two neighbours. Push by Islamabad comes as Washington, in recent years, has pivoted strongly towards India.

UK, EFTA already in the bag and EU on the way, many members of RCEP except China signed up, and even restrictions on China being lifted, India has changed its mind on trade.
It is telling that your commentary on US support to Pak stops at Bill Clinton. You ignore the diplomatic hard work under NDA-1 & UPA-1/2, that resulted in isolation of Pak (and de-hyphenation of India with Pak). That was a strategic victory for India post the Clinton presidency that you so blithely ignore.
