China Credit Rating Agency Downgrade USA

So why does anybody rate government debt? It is not like the USA would default. Deficits mean absolutely nothing. Obama’s first four years produced deficits that were nearly $5 trillion. Trump’s Tax Reform the Democrats claim will add $1 trillion. So why was $5 trillion OK but $1 trillion is not?
The entire rating game is a joke. Nobody will ever pay off their debts so why rate something that is impossible anyway?
