    You remember r/shitamericanssay? Last time he won, there were a lot of people talking about stuff Europe has but America doesn’t, and, if you browse the posts there, a lot of Americans responding how Europe is backwards, in the stone age, and what they do have is paid for by America, out of benevolence.

    Well, those folks are in charge now.

      Our EU ‘leaders’ are US bootlickers.
      They’re a bit upset now that master is angry.

        The master isn’t angry, the master croaked, and his idiot son with anger issues is in charge now. The only question is if the EU will have the foresight to see the writing on the wall and bail before they’re caught in the undertow.

          Like I said, our EU leaders are puppets, they don’t have our interests in mind.
          They were perfectly fine with the slow death of seeing the economy and people suffer after the Nordstream US terrorist act.
          Not a peep from them.
          And even now they’re doing exactly what Trump wanted, spending more on useless killing toys.
          And it’s a whole lot more.
          Every country’s going to spend billions of money they don’t have and you know where they’re going to get it from.
          The already unhappy lowest layer of the population.
          Probably the last drop to push the extreme right in power. We’re almost in the 30’s again.

            “And even now they’re doing exactly what Trump wanted, spending more on useless killing toys.”

            Useless? Russia invaded Ukraine. Putin won’t stop there.

              To be honest, it doesn’t look like that one’s gonna be his decision to make.

                If Putin invades, we will need to go to eastern front anyway, better go with killing toys than without them.

                  I think you have been listening to a lot of warmongering stories.
                  Even then we would lose hard.
                  This is not a situation to go in without knowing the facts.
                  Like “we are going to die” if we pursue this road.

                    By “warmongering stories” you mean “current events”? When Russia invades your country there’s little decision making left to do.

            At least they seem to be buying domestic this time around. I mean, I fully expect them to Hillary it, despite everything, but it’s not impossible to pull out of the tailspin yet.
