The EU will rise and fall based on its fundamental success. Trump's policies of forcing hard choices on the EU, specifically no longer allowing it to ride coattails on defense and trade, will put enormous pressure on it. I'd argue the EU is weakened by this and will fracture more.
I don't think it has, just look at who has moved over to the extreme right. They had to react like they were all together because they were scared of what would happen if it was a success. Things could still change for the UK as a free agent they don't have to ask to make any deal but who they are dealing with. The biggest problem that the UK has had recently was the conservative government.
@b00ts4ndc4ts When the UK was part of the EU, it did not have to ask for permission - because as one of the three strongest EU countries, it created the law. Often the rest of the EU had to ask the UK for permission. The fact that the UK was "forced" to do anything by being in the EU is one of the biggest lies of Brexit
@veritaspk there are many things that you have too agree to be part of the EU, that's the hole point of it. Why do people still go on about they UK? Haven't the EU got other things to worry about like what's happening with farming.

Same reason why a lot of Americans genuinely believe(d) that a multi millionaire would care for the working class: Because of media in the hand of the ultra-rightwingers.

The question is HOW they do that. The model that Jean Monnet, Winston Churchill and pro-E.U.

It happens at some levels already, such as aircraft fighter programs. It needs to go further and remove its reliance on US military technology. So, no more German only made tanks and British made missile systems. The economy of scale through this integrated approach will afford a powerful defence of Europe. Sure, there will have to be horse trading about what is being built where, but this can be managed if you fear invasion and a collapse of your economy.

Yes, Trump is a strong proponent of national sovereignty, but I have never once heard him say, or even hint, that the EU is a danger to the United States. If anything Europe needs to be more united, not less, in order to face the threats the future may very well bring.

Trumps fails to understand how tariffs work. It's the people importing the goods that pay the tariffs which makes the imports more expensive for them. Typically this leads to them raising their prices which makes the items more expensive for people to buy once they reach stores etc. Only effect it can potentially have on foreign country is that people might order less from them due to the increased costs so they could lose some of their business but either way it will raise prices for consumers in the US. Another thing is that it can lead to retaliation from those other countries where they do the same in return.

Is this channel representative of what Europeans overall think? Or an echo chamber of voices concentrated around certain shared outlooks and opinions? Im in Europe.

Its corrupt, undemocratic, pushes policies detrimental to the interests of individual countries and the native populations through coercive means. And its pretty much lock step with the establishment security orgs, politicians and groups like WEF running the west, what the people want be damned. But europe truly breaking up isnt feasible in my view. We have to work together to some degree.

I’m a Brit living in Germany and I totally agree with regards to how much Chancellor Schroeder changed the Social Democratic Party. Although I couldn’t vote at the time, I was a member of the party, but I turned my back on them because of Schroeder, who in my opinion moved the party too far to the right. The SPD seemed to forsake the people and the “social” part in their party’s name in favour of focussing more on business interests, hoping that Reagan’s trickle-down would somehow magically work here, even while it didn’t work in the US. Even now where I have dual citizenship due to Brexit, I have not voted for the SPD. Centrists don’t work for the people anymore, and the far right is terrible. We need more leftwing candidates, but people seem to be afraid to move away from the centre.
I strongly believe that the left should talk less about identity politics or even abortion, and start talking much much more about the economy. Because we're in a situation where a large percentage of right wing voters believe that the right has good economic solutions for the working class. People are dramatically uneducated when it comes to economics.

well... both for different reasons the EU is a threat to the US because with its united economic power, they just can't bully us into unfair deals... and with the united power we do have, if we enforce some rules and regulations (Brussels effect), at least for material things and they still want to profit on our market, they do have to comply. The EU rules and regulations are a big pain in the backside of US corporations who would want to skin us like they do with the US citizens. Instead, they can only fairly profit and the gains are lesser. on the other hand, the united power of the EU prevent Russia from doing to the west of their borders what they did to the east in the 17thies. They did try, again and again, in the 18th and latter on, but they couldn't as there always was some roadblock in Europe. The closest they got was the Eastern Communist block. Just because a country had authority for a moment in time over a piece of land, does it mean the claim is legit... or we can go and accept the most craziest irredentists claims from former colonial powers (Spain, Portugal, UK, NL and France come to mind.

Eliminate trade barriers between the USA and EU and UK, but any barriers to US trade will be met with equivalent tariffs 4. Intermediate range nuclear missiles should be placed in Europe pointed at Russia
1. Members will indeed step ut their contributions, but if the us pull out, it won't have any money for that, goodby nato bribes ! 2. Yep, but should never be dependent period.

The EU will rise and fall based on its fundamental success. Trump's policies of forcing hard choices on the EU, specifically no longer allowing it to ride coattails on defense and trade, will put enormous pressure on it. I'd argue the EU is weakened by this and will fracture more.

Just an army. It's really there already (mostly). What is missing is a combined military budget to achieve economies of scale. It happens at some levels already, such as aircraft fighter programs. It needs to go further and remove its reliance on US military technology. So, no more German only made tanks and British made missile systems. The economy of scale through this integrated approach will afford a powerful defence of Europe. Sure, there will have to be horse trading about what is being built where, but this can be managed if you fear invasion and a collapse of your economy.

Yes, Trump is a strong proponent of national sovereignty, but I have never once heard him say, or even hint, that the EU is a danger to the United States. If anything Europe needs to be more united, not less, in order to face the threats the future may very well bring. A Europe that is strong, wealthy, and stable is a plus for the United States and the world.

Trumps fails to understand how tariffs work. It's the people importing the goods that pay the tariffs which makes the imports more expensive for them. Typically this leads to them raising their prices which makes the items more expensive for people to buy once they reach stores etc. Only effect it can potentially have on foreign country is that people might order less from them due to the increased costs so they could lose some of their business but either way it will raise prices for consumers in the US. Another thing is that it can lead to retaliation from those other countries where they do the same in return.

@@davidbrisbane7206 The reason is simple: living standards, meaning mostly wages, when adjusted for inflation, have not been increasing throughout the developed world and even many parts of the advanced developing world.
@@calc1657 Cause it's NOT ONLY about the powerty. And that's a simple truth of life. People also are against the illegal immigration. Fuuuull stop! If the leftists don't understand THAT, then that's THEIR problem isn't it! Let them figure it out.
But even in France the trend has been decline, also the levels of immigration in France have been so utterly massive that that factor alone overrides the antifa effect of social democracy.
@@calc1657 It's about the illegal immigration and not even about the standard of living. Why is that so difficult to understand? And why is my comment getting shadowbanned by this crazy site?
11:50 this argument baffles me. The right doesn't shut down identify politics. If anything it amplifies it. All they talk about is 'wokeness'.
Exactly. It's absurd!
Harris hardly mentioned any identity stuff during the campaign. The ads the right came up with had clips from years ago from when she was still in CA and implied that once someone says something they couldn’t possibly change their stance on it. Meanwhile, Trump changed his mind on LOADS of issues over the years.
They are 100% based on identity politics. Pretending the right is not all identity all the time is myopic.
Yeah, but lots of UK residents have had buyer's remorse since.
Are you serious? Economy was the problem? People don't care about others, that's the problem. In UK, I know many foreigners that voted for Brexit, same as many foreigners voted for Trump because we didn't get to the level of awareness, responsibility and love to understand that we should consider the wellbeing of all in the world. We are too selfish and we are not aware that what we give, we will get. That happened with Brexit. More immigrants came in the country from outside Europe and the people I know that they voted for Brexit, lost their jobs and houses. Lots of the shops closed. Everything has consequences and very few think of consequences before to take a decision.
Thank you!
Abso-bloody-lutely. Do you want to go halves on setting up a new country? I've got a garden we can use, but we will have to declare it a separate state like San Marino. ...I haven't got a mountain range around it, but I have got a fence.
Foreigners vote ?
@@passantzen Immigrants originally from other countries do, yes.
@@robinarmitage1376 ok but they had to be UK citizens to vote for Brexit or US citizens to vote for Trump, don't they ? Is it common to consider them foreigners nevertheless ? In France only citizens vote and it would be considered false to call them foreigners. I don't understand.

It is the entire US establishment. The EU is too short sighted to see it.
I’m a Brit living in Germany and I totally agree with regards to how much Chancellor Schroeder changed the Social Democratic Party. Although I couldn’t vote at the time, I was a member of the party, but I turned my back on them because of Schroeder, who in my opinion moved the party too far to the right. The SPD seemed to forsake the people and the “social” part in their party’s name in favour of focussing more on business interests, hoping that Reagan’s trickle-down would somehow magically work here, even while it didn’t work in the US. Even now where I have dual citizenship due to Brexit, I have not voted for the SPD.
Centrists don’t work for the people anymore, and the far right is terrible. We need more leftwing candidates, but people seem to be afraid to move away from the centre.

What if Trump just minds his own business and leaves the Europeans alone to make their own decisions?
Europe will do what america says and like it.
Trump should have nothing to say period! Europe should unite each other and stop being dependend on donald f..trump! Weak up EU
I strongly believe that the left should talk less about identity politics or even abortion, and start talking much much more about the economy. Because we're in a situation where a large percentage of right wing voters believe that the right has good economic solutions for the working class. People are dramatically uneducated when it comes to economics.
It’s a freaking culture war between the left and right. You’re right
The non-right will only win by uniting the rest of voters against the moneyed interests. But then the donors...
The Supreme Court refused to disturb the rulings of lower federal court judges that Meadows' conduct and crimes to help Trump try to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia were not part of Meadows' official duties as Chief of Staff to Trump.
The 12 million more Biden votes than Harris proves the ballot stuffing of 2020.
All the malicious prosecutors will be prosecuted.
Jack Smith is top of the list for that.
Correction Putin see Europe as a threat 😉 Trump is the instrument
well... both for different reasons
the EU is a threat to the US because with its united economic power, they just can't bully us into unfair deals... and with the united power we do have, if we enforce some rules and regulations (Brussels effect), at least for material things and they still want to profit on our market, they do have to comply. The EU rules and regulations are a big pain in the backside of US corporations who would want to skin us like they do with the US citizens. Instead, they can only fairly profit and the gains are lesser.
on the other hand, the united power of the EU prevent Russia from doing to the west of their borders what they did to the east in the 17thies. They did try, again and again, in the 18th and latter on, but they couldn't as there always was some roadblock in Europe. The closest they got was the Eastern Communist block. Just because a country had authority for a moment in time over a piece of land, does it mean the claim is legit... or we can go and accept the most craziest irredentists claims from former colonial powers (Spain, Portugal, UK, NL and France come to mind. They all controlled quite a big chunk of the globe at one time or another.)
He is right... There are only two ways forward for Europe....and it will be a federal system that will be the one that will win out in the end.... The only reason its not here all already is... fear and misplaced patriottisme....by going the federal way Europe can and will be the economic and military center of the world again.....Lets make Europe Great Again......
That will swallow small countries out of existence.
@@charisma-hornum-friesEven if it did, what do you think those countries will not be swallowed by others anyway ? Russia has been very clear about reviving their colonial empire in eastern Europe, what do you think will append to the people there ?
Nope leave Britain out of this mess.
Absurd. Federalism would be even worse than we have now. We already suffers from German crazy decisions to close nuclear plants and go all in on Russian gas - the result is sky high electric tariffs in it's neighbors who had nothing to say in the matter. A federalist system would be even worse, then those crazy Germans would overrule us. A federalist system would see a need for us to leave EU.
@@charisma-hornum-friesit wouldn't, I m from a small country and I want federalization, smaller countries would be less vunerable
Hungary yes, if that is the plan, it is having the opposite effect. Keir Starmer, the UK Prime Minister is getting closer to Europe, and has ramped up since, Donald Trump won the presidency.

IT's nothing to do with Trump, but his mate Farage was wrong saying others would follow the UK. It is probable that the UK will return to the EU within 10-5 years of leaving. In European mainland, parties that previously wanted to leave the EU saw the results in the UK and decided to want to stay in the EU

Why did voters choose TRÜMP? Because they didn't want a woman, a black woman, as president (he won against women and lost against a man). Just facts.

yeah Brexit really really helped the UK 🤪It is like UK and US have a competion in isolationism - UK is in the lead, but US has a Trump card!!!
Well the left one big in Britain
Not really, when you look at the vote. What, a 33% tally and 10 point margin for Labour? Their system creates a lot of seats, no denying, though, for a 33% tally. But here we are a few months later and the Tories are leading by 2 points again. Which makes me sad actually, we need an alternative to the Tories' managed decline philosophy.
when was that ?

It's the opposite, he is forcing Europe to rethink its model and arrive to the conclusion it needs to become one republic: a United States of Europe to cope with the current economic and strategic threats from large nations like Russia, China and even India.

Best idea would be for Europe to invite Brittain to re - enter the European union, and distance them selves from the USA, and seek more coöperation with other, more coöperative countries in south Amerika, Afrika and middle and far east.
For that to be succesfull, Europe needs to take a step back, and behave themselves coöperative towards those new partners. A dictatorship from the USA is in axeptable, because Trump will only care for himself and his college tsars! 🤔

This is what Trump thinks of Europe:
1. Members of NATO need to step up their contributions to what their contributions should be
2. Europe should never be dependent on Russia for energy
3. Eliminate trade barriers between the USA and EU and UK, but any barriers to US trade will be met with equivalent tariffs
4. Intermediate range nuclear missiles should be placed in Europe pointed at Russia
1. Members will indeed step ut their contributions, but if the us pull out, it won't have any money for that, goodby nato bribes !
2. Yep, but should never be dependent period. I don't think he want an Europe independent from the USA ^^
3 . Not happening, especially because he will fire the first shot in the economic war.
4. He can already do that with Alaska right ?
Russia is Europe's natural ally.
