VISA and Mastercard unironically do more to damage international relations and American hegemony than Trump does. It's one thing if Orange Man goes all and starts slapping tariffs onto other countries for not taking their illegals back or stopping fentanyl from getting into the US, but at least Trump has other people and branches of power to reel him in, and he'll be gone in 4 years. What's to stop these payment companies from just fricking with random international businesses, websites, or whole industries just because they want to?
Yup that's how they get'cha, and pressuring the banks who are beholden to some regs to yeet your accounts, which is why all the current r-slurs with unrealized crypto gains are one midlevel executive's whim away from basically making it impossible for them to translate it into useable currency on a meaningful scale for 99% of normal people.
