Amazing. On one hand I hate being the person in a failing state but on the other hand I get to laugh at all the assholes who really thought they knew something the rest of the world didn't know.

I guess warfare is the only way to fight off a bully....

The vassals aren't going to fight their master.

I guess we can put a wager. $10 on things don't go fully the bully's way.

Trump is an idiot and he has plenty of ways to fuck up his own plans. However, it's obvious that the US has Europe bent over a barrel at this point. Europe is entirely dependent on the US economically and militarily at this point. The US holds all the cards in this relationship and that means Europeans will simply have to accept the punishment.
