“I think we are making a mistake,” wrote Vance, adding that while only 3% of US trade goes through the Suez canal, 40% of European trade does. “There is a real risk that the public doesn’t understand this or why it’s necessary,” he added. “The strongest reason to do this is, as [Trump] said, to send a message."
Vance was contending that once again the United States is doing what Europe should be.

Houthis wouldn't be attacking ships if it weren't for the US' meddling in the Middle East.

Waltz, a foreign policy traditionalist, said: “It will have to be the United States that reopens these shipping lanes.” But he agreed that the administration sought to “compile the cost associated and levy them on the Europeans”.

Maybe we should levy on the US the costs of the multiple refugee crises they have caused in our neighborhood

Trump and his lackeys are showing the classic signs of fascism.

"...and in traditional Nazi fashion; one never attributes one's losses to oneself."

• Why Do War Thunder Players Leak Classified Information?

Trump: "We Americans subsidize Canada for everything."

• Starts Needless Trade War

Trade war ensues, egg prices skyrockets due to bird-flu in combination with the self-induced trade war

Trump: hey Europeans can yall please spare some eggs?

and now for some reason they say they hate "bailing Europe out again"🤣🤣🤣

Edit:
Breaking news! I found an insider picture to the current White House:

What’s incredible is the extent kool aid is being drunk.

It’s easy to imagine the admin's distaste of Europe being largely theatre for self serving purposes, but no, they really look down on Europe. They really view a purely transactional, begrudging relationship as desirable, like old allies are just filthy liberals.

…I guess this is another Nazi parallel. Where some parties/groups thought the antisemitism was partially for show.

But also, that is bonkers. Disconnecting from Europe will devastate the US, just to start. The Nazis were at least coldly pragmatic, but it feels like ideology has completely detached much of our country from reality, and it goes down the whole stack.

This would be a great moment to remind conservatives as well as everyone in general that the United States has been the only ally that has invoked Article 5 of NATO.

The arrogance is astounding.

That's extremely concerning and should be taken at face value. And that's what leaked, imagine what they manage to keep private.

They will use everything they have against us. I really hope European leaders and the European commission see this for what it is and act accordingly.

We need complete and definitive independence from the US, even if the next president is a democrat (if there are next presidents even).

How is it possible to "accidentally" add a reporter from the Atlantic magazine to a Signal group chat? You can't tell me this wasn't deliberate. Imho it was deliberately leaked by someone in the administration who wants to drive a wedge between the transatlantic partnership. Beneficiaries: Russia, China. Just like Vance's hissy fit with Zelensky and his speech on Munich security conferences were all deliberately staged stunts. Vance is probably getting paid by Russia to do this.

Btw. 60% of maritime EU-China trade goes over the Suez canal, so China is also a huge beneficiary of keeping the canal open, yet China contributed absolutely nothing to keep it open, so why didn't Vance and Hegseth call China a "freeloader"?

ooooh when captain america throws his mighty shield~

he surely expects some form of return

Houthis are not attacking European ships. They are enforcing a blockade on Israeli ships in protest of Gaza politic of starvation and more recently US ships due to US bombardments.

American exceptionalism and arrogance on full display. They're #1, and everyone else sucks. We can't even wipe our arses without the guiding hand of the great bald eagle, they saved our arses in WWII and are responsible for taking care of everything ever in human history

I don't like that they use the word freeloading. It doesn't seem right...

If anything, Europe could be piggybacking on the Trump administration. Cause they are little fascist pigs ⎝˵ ͠° (●●) °͠ ˵ ⎠

Wait THIS WAS A SIGNAL CHAT????!!! Fuck

That's ok. We hate your current regime as well.

Sincerely,

Europe

The trump regime, and now by extension the US, is rotten and evil to the core.
