Edward Luce (FT) on what will happen over the next 4 years:

'Trump will sow distrust about America’s word. Deals will start to dry up. Large parts of the world long ago gave up on the notion of a US-led liberal international order, which makes them sanguine about the ascent of the “ugly American”. Yet they will be hunting for insurance. It would be no surprise were China in the near future to win more friends and influence in Trump’s hemisphere'

So, a general (further) pivot to china?
