How could America—the nation that stormed the beaches of Normandy, that helped tear down the Berlin Wall—elect Trump, a man who kneels before dictators? How did the country that once led the free world become one that spits in the face of its own allies?
Perhaps the question is and should be what now ? If Europe had robust , large well equipped armed forces of its own then they would have the space to absorb that diplomatic and disgraceful disaster on Friday . But they don’t . So it’s about surely creating space , getting really busy on the diplomatic front like yesterday and on the military front too obviously.
Our leaders don’t have time to rebuke anymore they did that on Friday . Done . Now everything should be geared to - organise ! action ! deliver ! Yes Vance is a supremely arrogant silver tongued truly despicable creature and I was pulling what little hair I have left out on Friday evening as i ferociously devoured a bottle of wine that was supposed to last for at least a few days . But that’s done too . Move on , adapt , be dynamic , reflect and learn and don’t dwindle please please Europe . For far too long parts of Europe have been naive entitled and lazy when the writing was on the wall for all too see . I was out in London recently with an old friend , an intelligent man and I was becoming rather animated with the geopolitical state of European affairs as the evening wore on . His ambivalence shocked me .
Europe has huge resources and expertise . Now it needs the passion will and leadership .
No one would ever make that mistake again (too hard on JD!) …not after today !!!

Not surprised, but ashamed
JD is worse than Trump.
