"No country on the planet should trust any of the big powers" is a better title.

It is not like China or Russia are much better.

   Now the main problem with that statement is it's too general. 'No country on the planet should trust any of the big powers.' is too general and as an argument against big powers it's not definite enough, hence it'll be a weak argument as there's not definition for what a country is, or a planet is. Also 'should trust' is now a moral/ethical argument.

   Therefore 'No country on the planet should trust the Americans.', is still a much better assertion and claim for John Mearsheimer's argument and case against the USA, there's still some weak and moderate areas in his argumentation to work on or for the arguer to attack logically, but it's not so vague anymore than the other title OP suggested.
