The US has data at display:
https://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/c5700.html

That shows the trade size and the trade deficit US has. None of it has anything to do with the discussion here!

is the Saudi still aggressive toward the Yemeni government?

Yes they are. The blockade still continues and the cease fire terms have been violated multiple times by the Arab-US coalition.

the Chinese government has already made agreed to be peaceful between Saudi and Iran. this will only put them in chaos again and this time, the Saudis are unsure if the US forces will come to the rescue because of the PetroUSD discontinuation.

As I always say the damage Trump did to America is yet to be realized by Americans. He isolated USA more than ever, he not only pushed away allies (NATO and others) but also pushed colonies and dependent dictatorships like Saudi family away.

Remember that when the Armed Forces of Yemen started their series of retaliations against their invaders, Trump was in office and the US regime didn't come to their rescue back then either. At that time not only Saudi infrastructure like Aramco went up in smokes but also US military bases in Arabia went under attack.

This is one of the reasons why the Saudi regime has been distancing itself from US (selling oil in Yuan, discontinuation of Petrodollar, cutting oil production to keep price up despite US demands, making deals with Russia and China, etc.). They finally realized that the US regime only wants to use them for their oil and care about nothing else and most importantly the US military is not even capable of protecting them as we saw it back then and we are seeing it today in the Red Sea how the US Navy is being easily attacked and incapacitated like USS Dwight D. Eisenhower that had to be brought back home due to the damages it took.

it could be true that the peace agreement between Saudi and Iran doesn't involve Yemen. while the Houtis are busy fighting IDF, Saudi is also busy disrupting the Yemenis. somehow the House of Saud just can't be trusted to stay put. if all hell breaks lose, Iran could rain down armaments on this country.

Trump along with his vice supporting the war in the Middle East, will make the war worse, especially the Ukraine-Russia war. after all their political difference, his policy may still be no different from Biden's.
