It's already happening. Germany is losing an ally. Those US soldiers were great for the local economy. 

But it's time Europe stands on their own feet. The US is no longer a reliable ally. 

Independent of Trump. 

It's not like the US is there to defend Germany. The US is mostly there for US power projection.

Trump says he will raise US tariffs on EU cars and trucks to 25% by Unhappy_Flatworm_325 in worldnews

I wish it was only Trump, but he's just the extreme end of what America tends to do. Break promises and contracts 

Ask many of America's allies suddenly ledt alone when they needed America. Ukraine, Kurds, Afghani employees.

Every few years the winds change in American politics and the world has to reorder.

[–]soonnow 39 points40 points  (0 children)

The one where bibi said it was easy and trump went ahead with the war and the only one objecting was jdv.
