    Europe needs more allies, right now they act as if they’re too weak to speak up against US. The closer the capitalistic democracies are, the less politicians feel the need to play nice to the orange bully.

      Nah, it’s just pointless to talk to a partner who’s not reliable. See all these talks with putin just b4 ukraine invasion where he pledged he wont invade. Just wasted time n energy.

      I think right now EU gets what they want by keeping their heads low. If trump’s that easy to game why not leverage it.
