    There’s a widespread view in Europe, which I happen to share, that the US is lost - for a considerable time. It’s unlikely to be a dependable ally for at least a generation.

    This is going to hurt Europe, but in the longer term US isolationism will hurt the US more than it will hurt the rest of the world. It makes a lot of sense for the opposition party in the US to be trying to prepare the ground for a repair of those relationships if and when they gett into power.

    Good luck to them, but I think it’s going to be too late.

      I don’t think the dems will try to fix anything if they get into power. They will try to appear more moderate but I don’t think they will really back out of the most changes. They’re paid off by the same masters.
