US-EU ties are a much deeper than what the current US president has stirred up. What an embarrassment. Give 8 months and perhaps have a new president and things may turn for the better. I vividly recall the support and warm of the people of Europe, their messages and prayers during the 9/11 attack.
When we must cooperate with others, we must look for common principles, underlying foundation of a country. China can become a super power bully around other countries into a dystopian world. Is that what we want in Germany? German companies having to apologize to the CCP for offending them?
My theory around the election of Trump through a number of incidents that lead up to it - Russian objectives to dismantle US-EU, Chinese objectives to bankcrupt US by paying off their executives to move the factories to China, Democrats vs Republicans polarization and Trump dropping the American credibility. It is sad. Remember, Trump didn't win popular vote. When middle America is bankrupt, there is no food on the table, drug use is through the roof - they will want some change in Washington, Trump gets elected. I don't want my kids to grow up to a world where democracy is dying, western countries are infighting and there is an increasing risk of complete and utter lack of freedom, loss of privacy and obsolence of liberty.
What a sad world to be in. China can be amazing super power if it suddenly got rid of CCP and had an open minded democracy, inspiring and building a model of how other nations can follow. Instead, we are seeing a regression and nationalism rising around the world. Same thing in India.
