    It’s one thing to be a unreliable, distasteful ally who at least has common enemies.

    It’s another thing to be a bigger genocider than Stalin and Hitler combined and knowingly rolling the dice on the end of the world.

    Europe knows the US sucks, but it’s better than the alternatives at the moment. Letting a nuke slide is not an acceptable alternative for any country in the world. The US would immediately be a common enemy of every country in the world, and even the most cynical, bootlicking neoliberal cannot go against that.

    Or maybe the political class is just all lizard people and waiting for the moment to Kill The Poor.
