    What do you disagree with specifically?

    There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data. There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

                Trump negotiated a deal with Middle Eastern rulers to set up safe zones in Syria and other parts of the Middle East, the first big step to ending the refugee crisis altogether. Barely a week in office, he's already done more to solve world crises than all of Europe and America's leaders combined accomplished in the past 8 years. http://www.jpost.com/American-Politics/Trump-and-Saudi-king-agree-to-support-safe-zones-in-Syria-479967

                        You know Europe could theoretically make peace with Russia and the US would munch their freedom fries around the globe on their own. Less war more love, sounds good to me.

                                  Yeah, I don't think they will start a war with the US. But they will certainly stop buying any crap from there starting yesterday.

                                      Yeah, I don't think they will start a war with the US. But they will certainly stop buying any crap from there starting yesterday.

                                      Neither do I - that would just be dumb. I was commenting on your implication that if the US left the EU to take care of itself and they befriended Russia there would be "less war, more love". History tells us the opposite.

                                      Meh! The US has run a trade deficit with the EU for decades. It helps us economically if we start "rolling our own".

                                        Of course, just another trade war, who cares?

                                          It would be unfortunate but I'd prefer a trade war with the EU rather than continued lopsided US military expenditures (both lives and $) in their defense. Can you offer even a single rational reason why Europe shouldn't defend themselves?
