If you wonder why Europeans do not respect the U.S. under Trump, have a look at these two headlines only four weeks apart.

INVASION PLOT

Donald Trump 'orders US army chiefs to draw up plan to invade Greenland'

but interesting also:
what i heard in the radio today about rubios speech has not much to do with the headline on the right… someone seems to be wanting to leave out a lot of detail

@randahl Neither respect nor trust, in fact.

I think most Europeans disagree with this. Firstly, because of the brood called Republicans, we are not a part of each other and therefore do not belong together. Secondly, the Yanks will find out what it's like to stand alone if they set even one of their fat feet on Greenland.

Personally (as an European) I haven't had much respect for the worth of the USA towards human rights and lawfullness for the past 25 years almost. Under the MAGA network state movement this is obviously worse, but it didn't start there, and it will not suddenly improve when MAGA goes. But within European governments there are still a lot of determined Atlanticists. Rubio is obviously trying to give them a hand to continue to stall Europe's self reliance movement.

US is run by the wealthy. When they see sales falling ... they tell their lackeys (politicians) to change tack.

@randahl They will understand a bit too late that the US depends also A LOT on Europe as a huge market. Too late guys, Europe has to move forwards and says 'bye 'to 'Dady'

@thierry_van_kerm 🤡 "our strong nation of 348 million people do not need all those tiny European countries organised in an insignificant trading block of only… uuhmmm… let me see… 450 million people." 👐

@randahl 😂 Keep in mind Trump is not good at math. He's never noticed this. That said, I suspect many European politicians didn't either
