As a European, it’s wild to see 2016 just kinda happening all over again. At least that time I too wasn’t too worried since, well, how bad could it be?
We should all know a lot better than that by now. Glad to be on this side of the great pond for the time being.
Canadian here. It feels scary being next door. Especially because the far right happenings in America has emboldened some of that rhetoric and mindset over here. And of course, on top of that, any policy or economic moves the US makes has been impact over here.
It’s scary times and I have no clue what they should do about it. I thought it was all a joke until 2016 and have been questioning everything since.

That time being 12 months.
If Trump does win, Europe can’t count on America to respond properly to it’s NATO promises. At best Trump will drag out processes that can’t be drugout in order for NATO to remain effective. At worst he’ll try and pullout entirely.
When Trump won, my stomach sank, because I knew the 2016 election would go on for another 4 years. We’re now in year 8 and I’m really hoping it ends for good now.

Absolutely agreed! When it rains in the US, it drizzles in the EU, no exceptions. I’m under no delusion of absolute safety here.

It’s a good thing Europe has never had any of these right-wing populist leaders, or you’d look be pretty hypocritical.
Didn’t know Europe has a president…
