The thing is, there was a (twisted, yes, but actually there) logic to what the Reich did. What the US does appears to be fairly random as they change their mind every other week, and their rants rarely, if ever, make any sense.
They're trying to re-assert control as their super-profits from imperialism are drying up and they need to boost domestic manufacturing. It's rational, but has evil consequences and can't actually work.
