Hard to overstate quite how badly this kind of comment goes down with US allies in Europe – whose own troops fought and died in America’s wars, not least those that followed the USA triggering NATO article 5 after 9/11.

NEW: JD Vance describes UK & French troops in Ukraine as “20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.
Spits in the face of UK & EU troops that died supporting the US in Iraq & Afghanistan.
So revealing. The Atlantic alliance & “special relationship” is dead.

May he be forgiven.
A putrescent personality with eyeliner.
When the British were at war with Argentina over their invasion of the Falklands the US did almost nothing to support us
The alliance has only ever worked one way
I guess this is his „thanks“.
And WHO, pray tell, stopped us when we were ready to intervene in Syria?
(sorry to be rude - what Vance said is beyond despicable).
The complicating factor is that it’s hard to imagine Vance was so insulting simply by accident.
Trump, Vance, Musk and all those techbros who nurtured and financed them are simply imposing this on the World, no-one else actually wants it.
For no particular reason I’ll leave this:

We think Americans are a lot like us but they’re not. Jon Spoel’s If Only They Didn’t Speak English is very good on this.
It’s the UA elites stealing money who want the war to continue forever.
Project 2025 is his, and their baby.
The GOP/trump are Russian agents! Remember, Russia hacked the RNC the same time they hacked the DNC. They released the D’s info but not the R’s. Their payoff has arrived.

The very words are like nails down a blackboard to me.
I thought the republican leadership were low before, but we had no idea how low they could all go.
