    It's not only a foe of the US, it's a foe of the european union citizens. It's a technocratic creations of corporations to rule over the euros.

    I don't trust Trump, however that's one of the politician that I distrust the least, because in a way, there is some coherence in his way of acting. Traditionnal politicians are harder to read, they're smooth and nice looking, but they still work against the interest of their own people and for the corporations.

    Honnestly, most euros have their own things to deal so it doesn't change a lot. That's a long time I expect the same from american politicians I do for mine : the worst. Especially since Bush. The american people, it's something else, even if you seems to have particulary weird christian fundamentalists, black and white supremacist and queers activists. USA seems to me to be a country of excess but their is some charms, especially some sides of the old rural america.

    The reason the European Union was formed in the first place was to gain an advantage over the larger US economy. That makes them a competitive foe. I can't see not understanding this.

    Which makes Trump correct in his assertion.

    BS, Trump is an abonimation to US foreign policy. His soft approach to Russia is counter to US Intelligence services and Congress, he stated North Korea is a friend, they back doored him, his unilateral trade war with China, which we cannot win alone, pulling out of the Iran deal alone, again, now all the other nations are going to deal with Iran regardless of the US, which makes the notion completely mute, there is Canada and now this, let alone NATO. Trump has put the US in a corner by itself.

    Sure thats why every year they put restrictions on them and give some huge fines.

    Think you are mixing up with the US, the GOP and trump sure to drop their pants whenever a company snaps its fingers.

    On his trip to UK, he told Boris Johnson that he would make an excellent Prime Minister.

    I would be curious to see how Trump would react if Theresa May went to tell Mike Pompeo that he would make a very good President....

    I can see that, although the word “foe” still seems unnecessarily harsh for that context. Perhaps “opponent” would be more appropriate.

    That is exactly what Trump is doing with Russia and China and North Korea :)

    Are Trump supporters that naive to infer that Russia, China and North Korea are now friendly to the US just because of Trump :)

    Nations with which the US has had a military pact for 75 years are not opponents.

    Such a childish understanding. Are you saying we should have no communications and go on a war footing?

    I see you stray again from the subject. :)

    Is or is not Trump giving the soft touch to Russia?
