We are talking about individuals here. People are absolutely capable of not drinking Coke because they want to avoid American products.

I promise you that virtually no people care about avoiding American products that much. You are being idealistic, and are simply out of touch with the average person if you actually believe this.

Virtually one will stop buying Coke. Virtually no one will stop wanting an iPhone. So on and so forth. They will gladly criticize the US while continuing to indulge in the biggest brand names.

There have already been significant decreases in Canadian (and likely other countries) purchases of American goods, and travel to the US. The thing you say will never happen, already happened last year.

Jim Beam (the bourbon distillery) said before Trump 10% of their sales were to Canada, and that has gone to nearly zero.

		yep, and in some part of the EU the dominant position of Coca Cola has been crumbling for reasons unrelated to the US and many "not a cheap knock off" alternative already exist...
