  1. Aka rest of world gives little fuck about rule of law

  2. Surely a nation with so many well trained gun owners…etc etc.

  3. European anxiety only exists in the head of journalists and EU politicians.

  4. Huh I wonder why China and Russia aren’t worried about trump…

  5. Most likely because other than the west, most of the world don’t have a good experience of the US.

    Europe is for the first time, not really an ally of America and are in the firing line.

    Trumps new friends are Putin et al. What has been the geopolitical norm basically since the end of WWII is most likely over.

  6. So Greenland, Canada, Panama, and China are all looking forward to it then?

  7. So there’s more fear of Trump within the Western bubble of bullshit propaganda. And when you leave that bubble, you find people have different opinions.

  8. I think Trump is right to challenge European leaders. There are many euro countries that free ride off American military spending. Having said that  if he takes it too far and pulls out of NATO that would be monumentally stupid. 

  9. War in Palestine is already over. If war in Ukraine ends this year he’ll probably get the Nobel prize, or at least be much more deserving of it than Obama.

  10. I mean, it seems fairly obvious that those most nervous about a disruptive and unpredictable US president would be

    1. Close allies of the US
    2. Opponents and enemies of the US
