I feel that the reality is that the U.s condescended to India's shrill Pakistan blame for everything narrative because they wanted India to be a more effective front against China, however now that it's apparent that India will not be that America is not willing to indulge the anti pakistan narrative as much, after all why should it if that means that Pakistan goes so deep with China that America no longer has any utility to Pakistan.
Therefore, I really don't understand and infact respect Indian strategic thinking, where they actually think that they can effectively trick and con America into supporting India to be a serious bigger power, without giving anything proportionate back.
