It’s time for the EU to grow up and give the USA its walking papers. I mean it’s not as if the USA has been even remotely helpful as NATO countries face their greatest threat since the Soviet Union.

Throughout all of its history the USA has been an unreliable ally. Whoever banks on US support loses in the long term as the fickle US electorate changes flips its lid every 4-8 years and drastically rewrites the script as to who is a friend and who is an enemy.

And the script for the next four years says autocrats and other such assholes are the friends, and they’re willing to throw the previous friends’ bodies under the bus to prop up a failing business enterprise run by a crony.

    Yes that is a crime.

    It’s incredible how much the US spends for basically backing NATO’s defense, and when it basically happens, we wring our hands. Without even having to commit any troops!

    But a foreign invasion the country clearly doesn’t want? All out.
